You're so fine you blow my mind...

On to wikis.

Hmm.

I never really looked at a wiki from a 'collaborative' aspect as mentioned in the training video. So I now see the light. They can help with collaboration and I am glad that HCPL has embraced them for staff.

Wikipedia has sort of muddied the water, imho. On one hand professors don't want students to use wikipedia for school work because the content can be altered or changed to reflect 'bad' or incorrect information.

On the other hand the some information that is out there might need to be updated or changed frequently. Where do we draw the line?

During the course of my time on the reference desk, I do check Wikipedia for series orders and for basic 'ready reference' answers, but I can never put my trust in to Wikipedia 100% .

Not that there is anything wrong with it...

White House 2.0

It was only a matter of time before the White House went all in with Web 2.0

My Friend Flickr!?

This is a cross post from .

"See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight"

(Duran Duran)

Yeah, Flickr.

Another thing I should be doing to share photos with relatives near and far. I created an account way back when and never really did anything with it.

So now I have cross-posted a picture from Flickr and tagged it accordingly.
Maybe I will start using it Flickr now to post all our family pictures?

The New York Times has a post about a woman who tweets recipes.

Any twitters out there who would like to make something and let me try it, I am willing. ( You have to convert from metric to standard weights and measurements...)

Oprah 'tweets' and it becomes a bestseller

I am stunned by the number of followers she had before she even made her first tweet.
