Looking back & pondering thoughts

Did I really complete the process? It's just hard to believe that so much I learned during the learn & play sessions. It has been a great experience of trying to swim in the vast ocean of information in our Web World. Due to our learn & play program I've been exposed to this experience otherwise it might take me quite some time to dig & dive into the 'information explosion' world. Oh! if I only had some extra time to play around and enjoy it thoroughly. When we're pressed for time we just somehow have to complete it without playing just learning - now the feeling is almost like when a tough exam is over and you feel relaxed but something has been accomplished through out the process.
I loved the 'You Tube', I have to admit that I was skeptical in the beginning and thought it's only for the young generation - I was so wrong, it is so informative and it just feeds my brain everytime I look at it. Most of the credit I give to news media for my love affair with it.
Web 2.0 is an amazing, crazy world that I'm still trying to fathom its power & capacity. Now Internet became center of our culture and touches almost every aspect of our life style.
Wiki-ing is one of my favorite stuff to do - I just love it for current information and see how library can make good use of it.
Delicious is another tool that we use quite often at the library and it is very helpful for the staff to answer questions and finding a site saved in 'delicious' - after all it is all about the service we provide, the right information in least possible time.
I really don't know how often I'll continue with posting in my blog - I'm a introvert person and from the 'boomer' generation so blogging is not really my style. But it sure has been a great pleasure to learn & know the world of our future generation and try to help them & other customers as much as possible with my Web 2.0 knowledge.
