23 Things summary

I've enjoyed learning about Web 2.0 tools and their uses, particularly finding out about things I'd only heard of, and learning more about things I already use. So here's what I've particularly liked and disliked of the things that were new to me:


Hits

• Picasa. I still haven't been back but it was really easy to use and I've been very impressed with everyone else's pictures.
• Podcasts. Although I've used the BBC's Listen Again service for ages, I've found it much easier to have things pushed to Google Reader rather than hunting them down. Plus they're not taken down after a week so I've got a much longer listening window. I just wish they podcasted more programmes!
• Widgets. Because they were surprisingly simple to add.
  

Misses

• LinkedIn. Still sceptical about its relevant in the library world, I'm afraid.
• iGoogle. I like the theory but it's just too distracting for work. Also, I rarely use PCs other than my one at home and one at work, both of which are customised in different ways to my different needs.

Unsure

• Twitter. I want to like it but I haven't managed to get it incorporated into my daily routines. Perhaps I'll give it another go in the future.
