Final Comments!

What a great experience it has been for me! Thanks so much to Amanda and the rest of the ETG Group! It has been a fascinating learning curve which has expanded my horizons immensely. My children and family are so impressed at my knowledge about Wikis, flickr, de.li.cious, virtual games, Facebook and Second Life. I’m glad I participated in Learning 2.0 @ Mac! I will definitely participate in further training and I can’t wait to hear about what is up next.

The drop-in sessions were very helpful but in the future I would like to suggest that there be a more formal instruction on each individual topic as well as the informal ones.

Once again, thanks to all and keep up the great work!

Week #8: Online Applications & Tools

Today I registered in Last.fm and LibraryThing.  I love both of these online applications.

Last.fm is a great starting point to help me build up a muscial profile of my favorite artists.  I’m also exploring ’scrobbling’ which I hope to use to build my own personalized radio station.

LibraryThing is also great. I’m going to use it to help me organize my personal library. I can’t believe how quick and easy it is. 

I’ve checked out RedKid.net and fd’s Flickr Toys and I’ve used meebo.  I hope to explore more of  Zoho soon, time permitting, so that I can use it on a regular basis among my co-workers. 

I can’t believe how user friendly and useful all of these applications are.  The best part is that they are all free.   What a great learning curve it has been for me learning about all of this online stuff.  I’m glad I participated in Learning 2.0.
