Thing Two

Yikes. Web 2.0. Former ace student now languishes in the dust of the shiny new guard marching effortlessly and with STYLE into the virtual and actual space where we live. Hoping that they also serve who only lag behind, I strive simply to tag along after the parade rather than hiding behind the black velvet curtain of great responsibility and grand achievement, in effect, to brave the new world. Ok, so hardly braving, but trying...omg THING TWO! I am so far behind.

Do-over:
Web 2.0. It may be a challenge but it is not a choice. We either learn this stuff or we beg for help every time we want to communicate with anyone anytime. So to those of you who keep saying come on come on get with the program, I say keep those reminders coming. I must learn this stuff. And really, just as an aside to those of you who are also still mucking about in the baby Steps, we can hide but we're not going to get away with it.

So... I have attended the Neflin 2.0 workshop, very enlightening. I especially liked finding out that the number of smart people in the United States is like a drop of water in the ocean of smart people and that pretty soon you won't even be able to find an intellect of note in the Western world because we are draaagggggginng our feet not to mention mangling our educational opportunities with amazing aplomb. On a more positive note we learned about all the stuff that people are doing, most especially in libraries, with new technologies.

This is what I keep telling myself: We can do that, too.
we can do that too. wecandothattoo...

So thank you to Erin who managed the crowds while I struggled with Thing Two and back to work. I wonder what Thing Three is?
