A few thoughts at the end....

Well, we are asked to make a few comments at the end of all of these discovery exercises. So here goes.

I learned a lot, all-in-all. Some of the exercised were fun and interesting and there were several "I didn't know you could do that!" moments. I enjoyed exploring flickr type sites and podcast-but these I am already familiar with which made it easier to navigate through to new aspects. The one "new" one for me is Del.icio.us and I use it ALL THE TIME, for all kinds of things.

Many of the exercises asked to think about how these new technologies would be/could be useful for library users. Well, as I said before, I don't think about libraries much and here in preservation we don't really deal with many or most of these technologies, so it is hard to speak to that.

I would probably do this type of thing again, as I really enjoyed being able to learn and play a bit with them. All in all it's been a good experience.

And I am done!
