#23 Conclusion

I had to jump many hurdles to complete these exercises and without the help of my co-workers it may not have happened. I learned way more than I had anticipated and my thoughts were "so that's how they did that." Will I use any of the web features I've learned doing these exercises? Maybe, maybe not and I'm sure I'll participate again if I get training credits for it. If it were not for this program I would have never sought out this type of new technology. Well done!!!

This program can improve by shortening the number of activities. The number 23 alone was intimidating.

#22 NetLibrary

NetLibrary is a bit overwhelming for me right now because I have over 1,000 ebook titles to create a link from our catalog to NetLibrary. Ebooks will be very useful to a lot of people and I am sure in my mind I'm making it harder than it is. I have a list of titles for our library so I looked them up in NetLibrary and found the title piece of cake piece pie.

#21 Podcast

The podcast I listened to was The DaVinci Code: A Quest For Answers by Josh McDowell. The podcast was a book review discussing fact or fiction as it relates to the The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown. Each person contributed to the discussion stating their opinions and personal research on the books many topics. This would be useful to libraries that have book clubs to include those club members that are unable to attend. As well as advertise the library.

#20 YouTube

It is understandable why YouTube is so popular. Watching videos at work was a pleasant change. The reason why I chose Madea’s Class Reunion was it changed my outlook on life at a time when I really needed to laugh. My hat off to Tyler Perry for creating such a memorable and soul stirring play. I get the underlying message and those in need will as well. Laughter can be the best medicine during life’s ups and downs.

YouTube is easy to navigate and I enjoyed using it. You can make your own video advertisement download it YouTube to showcase your library.

#19 2.0 Award

I think Biblio.com is very use for patrons doing research. A lot of books are no longer in print and may not be found using electronic resources. For collectors signed copies, rare collections, and first editions can be found using this sight.

#18 Zoho

I remember the old word processors and it is truely a dinosaur compared to Zoho and Google Docs. I enjoyed playing with Zoho and will probably use it again. This is technology I can really use.
