I really learned a lot doing the NE Learns 2.0. I also have been able to help some family members with info I learned. We used Flickr to post my neice's pictures from Australia, which helped because she didn't have good internet access there. I didn't know what RSS was until that exercise even though I see it on almost every website. I don't know unless I take a class like this how I would even find out about the available technology. Certainly everyone I talk to on a regular basis has no idea about any of this stuff. Would I take another class? Yes. Thanks for the oppurtunity and for the help along the way

I really had fun going through some of the tools. I especially liked the cooking catagory. I tried one of the geneology sites and was almost signed up when I discovered there was a download involved so I quit that site. I think this could be very useful for programing. This is an area I will have to explore more.

Web based documents would be useful if shared by users in different locations. Also can be accessed anywhere and wouldn't have to worry about software issues with different computers. I uploaded a file that will be useful to be able to access it from the web as it is a file several people will need to use. I might have a concern on all these internet based files in the security.

I checked out all the wikis listed. I can see how a wiki would be handy to maintain lists we use for daily library use. We have a list of AR book tests the grade school owns and that would be handy to edit anytime they add titles. Also we maintain lists of the subjects for the Follett and that would be easy to edit anytime one is added. I also noticed that all the wikis has a login and password and one said that because of vandalism e-mail confirmation was required. I can see how easy it would be to have information destroyed.
