This has been a very interesting segment of the course. I have used a number of the Library 2.0 elements, but working through the material systematically is giving me a framework and putting things into a different context. I really enjoyed looking at the examples of blogs - particularly LC and Sydney Observatory.
This has given me great ideas about how we could use blogs internally as a communication strategy, to share information and to support collaborative projects. Much better than e-mails that need to be copied, etc.
For our clients, it would be wonderful to be able to tell them new information about our remotely available electronic resources and for them to respond about how they are using them, what else they would like us to purchase for their use and so on. We could also let them know when INFORMIT, for example will be down or when new interfaces will be introduced and provide training tips.
It is great to do this learning at work. It is already contributing to my skill set. I hope everyone will get stuck into it.

Great yo see you have started writing your blog. There are some very interesting examples out there, and some great possibilities for what we could do here.

Looking at the Flikr video makes the use of images in the digital environment sound so easy and sells it as a very desirable thing to have your photos'backed up' on the web. I might try this at ghome over the weekend.
I was a bit disappointed to look at the images tagged SLNSW--they are pretty mundane. I only got through the first 6 pages--it was enough...
