An exercise I would have liked to see in this training is the actual use of the MP3 player, participants will be receiving.
Tips, training on how to upload music, audiobooks, etc... would be helpful.
Thanks again for this training opportunity!

Reflective Exercise
You want feedback on my experience with Learning 2.0? Here it is :)
First I would like to say that I really enjoyed being part of this "training" program. It was a lot of fun and informative. I was familiar with most of the technology we covered but I discovered new ways to use said technology and in some cases, an aternated technology that I could use to save me time instead of some of the tools I previously used... An exemple for that is Tagging, which makes it easier for me to find and reuse the various sites I like and waste less time in between searches.
I am not sure of the use of the tools I have been presented with on a professional basis (there are a couple of them I am actually thinking about using but the majority of the technology we covered did not relate to my job). On a personal basis though, I am using several of the sites I have been introduced to during this "adventure" ! :)
I am really glad I participated to this Library 2.0 training. It has assisted me in realizing all that is out there. If I had to do it again, I definitely would!
Of all the technology we used, I think the one I enjoyed the most is MySpace. It allows your creative mind to create a virtual little you that links you to all the people you dont normally get to keep touch with, and in some cases, it assisted me in finding people with similar interest in my area... I really enjoyed the YouTube section as well, and blogging. It is something I never thought I would enjoy and I found myself actually enjoying it! :)
When I had questions and needed assistance with some confusing areas of the "steps", I found that assistance was available by both the Learning 2.0 team but also by other staff participating in this training and willing to share their discoveries and successes. It really was a great sharing experience with other people in your department, all assisting one another to get to a common goal.
I would really like to hear about other similar training opportunities within KCLS. I liked the format and content of this training session and would like to discover what else is out there! :) The only suggestion I would have if amybe to have one or two projects to do as teams (defined by either departments or branches) and work as a group to share and discover together instead of going through the whole process alone.

Postcasts
I took a look at the Postcast.net postcast directory. I did various searches and after a couple pages of library related postcasts I found one I thought was interested but also could be a good tool for KCLS...
http://www.podcast.net/show/28445
** watch the International Folk Dance Ensemble postcast- It is worth it! :) **
The postcasts from the OCLS (from Orange County) are used to advertise future events in their libraries, by offering samples and previews of performers and storytimes. This would be such a good thing to implement on our website. I can already see it: With every email reminder and event description sent to patrons, or directly on our website in the calendar/programs area, we could offer a previous of the actual show we will be offering in order to drive people to attend! This could be a great marketing/promotional tool!!!!

YouTube
Now I have to say I am a HUGE fan of YouTube.
Being so far away from home it is sometimes hard to find music and especially music videos to see what the new artists look like. With YouTube I have been able to stay connected with home and some of my favorite artists.
In my previous post I mentioned Garou (one of my favorite French singers) so I thought it appropriate to "embed" his video here so everyone reading this post can know who I am talking about . ** the video i chose is called "sous le vent" and it is one of my favorite songs from him **
(Here is the URL for it if for anyreason this does not work -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkU158B5VzQ)
I think you tube could be great as a promoting tool for storytimes, SRP and other programs, etc.... It is worth exploring!

Web 2.0 Award Nominees
Two of the sites I found cool and promising are:
- Last.fm... (http://www.last.fm/) This is a good tool for me because it seems to have a wide knowledge of music not only in english but in a variety of foreign language. I typed in Garou (one of my favorite French singers) and even though some of the suggestions were a little "odd", I can see the similarities between the songs I like and the ones that were played. I don't think this tool would be very useful in library use but as a personnal use I think I will reuse it!
- The other site I checked out was Loomia (http://loomia.com/). Now I think that this site could be used in the library and could actually be a good addition to our catalog. Loomia offers personalized recommendations based on the searches the user made and the sites/products he selected and appeared to be interested in. I think this site could be used as a great tool to suggest books that have similar topics, styles, etc... in order to assist our patrons in knowing what is out there and in possibly broadening their searches and literacy repertoire.
Enjoy!
Google Labs
I have to say that I found a couple "Labs" I really liked...
The first one is Google Page Creator. In a couple clicks you can create a fun and easy webpage. I actually tried it out to create a webpage for my family to visit once in a while to keep in touch with what we have been up to and to upload some recents pictures for them to view since we are so far away from each other! My page: http://cdujardinterry.googlepages.com/home
I also liked a lot the personalize homepage. I have used it previously and I really like it. It allows at a glance to view various topics, images, quotes, etc... updated daily or sometimes many times a day. A very cool idea, I thought! :)

online Softwares
Today I tried out the new (or at least new to me) Google Docs and Zoho online softwares. I have to say I really liked the idea of online softwares: Being able to edit documents and other media instantaneously with a group of people in various locations and being able to save it as various formats (therefore allowing it to be easily retrievable) is a great tool. Add to that the fact that it is free of charge, and you end up with tomorrow's view on homework, reports and collective projects!
Google Docs:
Zoho:
I looked quickly at both Zoho and Google Docs and I found Zoho more user friendly than Google Docs. It also appears that Zoho offers more software options and variety than Google. One of the tool Zoho offered that I really liked was the history search (which allows to retrieve the document at various stages of its creation and editing).
I found Google Docs' sharing option, though, easier to find and to use than the one offered on Zoho.
Overall, these online softwares have great possibilities. I believe I will be using them often.
Both of the online softwares I browsed through have a look very close to what one would expect from on a processing software (see images below).

Library 2.0
I believe Library 2.0 is a step forward. Communication in today's world is changing. So are research methods and interests. Library 2.0 will accomodate some of these changes and take into consideration the modern methods of both communications and the needs of the new library users.
The libraries as we know them, as a brick and mortar building at the heart of a community, will still be there and standing. People still need that physical approach and security to media and knowledge.
I view library 2.0 as a complement to the typical library use, not as a replacement. Library users still need the face to face contact with librarians and other library users, people still yearn for the library presence as a building and as a "scrapbook" to their community.
Libraries and Library 2.0 will allow a broader reach to members of the communities they served by offering what library users really need, either in the physical realm, and in the surreal realm that is offered online.
I believe that Library 2.0 as a supplement to today's libraries should be embraced with open arms since it will offer additional elements seeked by library users that the libraries of today cannot offer. They both will go hand in hand and enrich the library user's experience.

Rollyo and Google Custom Search
I went to both the KCLS Rollyo Search Roll and KCLS Google Custom Search sites. I have to say that I did not care for the Rollyo site. Too many commercials, for one, added to a confusing results display. The Google Custom Search site is user friendly and commercial free (that I can tell). The one thing I would have to criticize is that it resembles too closely the Google search engine and that could be confusing for people trying to compare results from searches in both.
To have access to my Rollio SearchRoll: http://rollyo.com/christel
To have access to my Google Custom Search: http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=009583909171872587507:cdgixedkera
I type the following search in each search engines (recettes poires)
Same observations as above: too many commercials with Rollyo.
Also, I like the feature with Google Custom Search where you can opt out or opt in the commercial section of your search engine.
I can definitively see a use for these kind of sites. It would be great for limiting the amount of search results and sources used for school reports (for examples) - resulting in the use of approved sites only. It would also be very useful searching various library databases for media (an alternative to Inter Library Loans and access to a wider range of databases to search from).

Wikis: An introduction
I looked at a couple of the suggested Wiki sites and I found them slightly boring. All except the Book Lovers Wiki which appeared to me as an excellent idea which could be promoted within our library system...
Wikis would allow online patron bookreviews to be posted to our website. A rating possibility along with a description of the pros and cons of a book, cd, dvd, etc... not only from our librarians, but also from our patrons would offer a broader perspective on the material and offer a community-based relation to build among patrons and their libraries.
Wikis could also be used as a database source. Wikipedia is a very good source of information, even though, as any other form of information, there are some comments and/or entries that can appear inaccurate... Wikipedia allows sharing of ideas and observations, which is the first step to creating one's own opinion and broaden one's understanding of the world that surrounds us... I believe we could create a discussion forum for our patrons regarding community events, tips, recommendations, etc... as well as maybe an alternate source of information for study help. This could go far.
Anyhow, I am going to stop chatting. I believe wikis are a good source of communication, sharing of information and ideas, as well as a powerful learning tool. Contents (which is often the issue brought up against wikis) can be controlled further and confirmed by experts to insure information accuracy. Overall, I believe that wikis are a tool that should be explored and encouraged in libraries.

LibraryThing
Now this is an AWESOME tool!
I created an account in LibraryThing and posted some of my favorite reads, and I was happy to see that my tastes in books are not that weird after all!!! :)
The best part in the whole site for me, was the suggestion area. Type the title of a book you liked and "ta da!" you end up with several other titles recommended by other users who liked the original book mentioned as well... I think I will be using this tool a LOT!!! :)
The link to my LibraryThing catalog is: http://www.librarything.com/catalog.php?view=christeldt

Del.icio.us and technorati
I went through Del.icio.us and technocrati today and I can't say I was too impressed! Del.icio.us wasn't bad but I honestly don't think I will use it a lot. I can see how it could be useful professionally as a quick source of reference and an alternate "search engine" on specific topics but I do not think I will have a lot of use for it.
Technorati, on the other hand, I did not like at all. I found it confusing and disorganized. I went through the exercises and was appalled at the results...
When searching for Learning 2.0 in Blog Posts, I ended up with 29.633 results... When processing the same search in tags and in Blog Directory, I ended up with 241 posts (in addition to video and pics results) and 315 blogs respectively. Who has time to go through each individual result to locate what they are looking for????
When searching for KCLS27things, the results were fewer but still too numerous to go through for a simple search... Blog Posts: 47 blogs / Tags: 43 tags / Blog Directory: 4 results.
It seems to me that blog spots look for key words when blog directory looks for whole sentences... Either way, I think you end up with too many results to go through in order to find what you are looking for. Technorati is a tool I will not be using!

MySpace and Libraries
Libraries accounts on MySpace? I think it is a wonderful idea! MySpace is a very popular site where people of all ages spend at least 1 hour a week chating with friends or browsing in search of topics that interest them... Wouldn't it be awesome if even 1/4th of the MySpace members spend an extra 20 minutes or so looking at what is happening in their local libraries? MySpace would allow local libraries additional contact time with their patrons or soon to become patrons. It would assist in reaching out to the population that is not regularly seen in libraries.
Advertising events, classes, new books, new music and videos to the less active library patron would encourage a rise in attendance and circulation.
Libraries consist of contact with people and sharing knowledge. MySpace and the web are ways to reach out and fulfill this value of libraries on a different level.

RSS Feeds: part 2!
Today I went on and tried a couple of the Search Tools displayed on the 27things post. I first tried Feedster and I found it rather tough to use... It wasn't obvious to me how to search the site by topic and some of the results returned for some of my keyword searches were a little odd to say the least! Getting slightly frustrated with this site, I went on and tried Topix. I found this site easier to use since it provides a easy to find compiled list of topics to choose from. To illustrate, I was able to add French Cooking as a theme with Topix and get a wider reach of sites offering articles or recipes on the topic, but when looking up French Cooking as keywords on Feedster, I ended up with recipes and cooking news/tips (what I was looking for) along with cooking classes and vacation adds, including aromatherapy recipes and casino listings!
All in all, I believe going to your favorite sites and adding them to bloglines is easier if seeking a particular pin-pointed subject. On the other hand, if one is interested in a broader perspective on a topic (i.e. news or new movie listings) searching via a RSS search site might be easier since it will compile most of the options available on a given topic.
As far as library-themed blogs go, I added The Shifted Librarian, Stephen's Lighthouse and Librarians' Internet Index: New This Week, along with a couple book review sites.

RSS Feeds
Today's Learning2.0 lesson was on RSS and newsreaders. To be honest, I am not quite sure what to think about this yet. I like the fact that it centralizes all the newsletters and websites one would normally visit daily... On the other end, I find it a little overwhelming to end up with 30 or more sites waiting for you to look at them. On a personal not: I think this would actually take me longer in the long run since I will end up check more sites daily (all sites being updated often) vs. currently checking one or two sites a day at most and the rest of them occasionally.
I think it might be helpful in keeping in touch with some important news or event, professionally and personally. I do not think it will be a life changing addition to my daily routine, but I can see how it can make things easier for people checking various newssites daily, etc... For myself, not being a huge news fan in the first place, I do not know if I will use it much... Only time will tell! :)
As a library, or as a librarian, I can see how this can be helpful. It will allow to keep in touch with your community (for example in a situation like the one earlier this year with the windstorm) and keep in touch with critics and publishing news on new books and other materials.

Further Exploration of Flickr
After reading today's post, i decided to play around a bit with Flickr and look at some of the link included on the post.
I cliked on Montager and I just loved it. This is SO fun! You can choose the tag/subject of your choice, and Poof! Automagically you end up with hundreds of images on that subject! This is so cool... You can see different pictures of a place/country, a favorite animal or even a feeling!
Then, seeing how cool the first try was, I decided to try out Spell with Flickr... This is another fun site! You basically chose a word (any word... also works with foreign caracters) and Flickr will spell each letter with a pictures. You don't like the picture chosen for a specific letter? No problem. Just click on it, and you get another!
Now, in my opinion, the best of the best! Curious once again, I checked out Trading Card Maker. Now... This is AWESOME! What a cool way to keep in touch with family and friends. This is so much better than sending ecards... Finally a tool that combine the fun of an ecard with the custom possibilities offered by emails... The only reproach I would have: It would be good to have either a wider choice of possible backgrounds or the possibility to import your own.

Ile des Embiez - Flickr
After visiting the blogspot today, I decided to go ahead and browse Flickr in search of a picture that I would like in order to complete scenario 1. I typed in a couple tag names, and I was agreably surprise to fall onto a picture of the spot I used to hang out at when I was a kid!
http://www.flickr.com/photos/redhead_ju/198719686/
This picture shows the island (named "L'Ile des Embiez") close to my parents' house where I grew up, and we would go there at least every weekend in the summer (sometimes on week nights) to swim and relax. It is about 20 minutes away by boat and it really is a small paradise. Few people, blue sea, shadded areas to rest when it is too hot outside, trails, etc... It was my very favorite place when I grew up, and I was very surprise to find it pictured on Flickr!!! This picture was taken, most likely, at the very top of the small montain on the island, where you can see the whole area at a glance.
Enjoy!

Hello
Hi everyone...
This blog is designed to describe experiences and frustrations, along with questions and comments I might have on learning 2.0...
Let's just say that so far most of the activities have mostly been informational and not too hands-on, but I am very excited to get this going. I am positive it will be fun (even though I expect it to be frustrating at times) as well as educational.
I am mainly exited about wikis and podcats, having dealt with each on a personal standpoint from a spectator side. I am looking forward to discovering how to create a podcast and share informations using wikis.
Who knows, with My Space I might even be able to link back up with friends I have lost touch with...
