Either way, it's good to have you!
Learning 2.0 is an online learning program that encourages staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people, society and libraries access information and communicate with each other.
Over the course of the next nine weeks this website will highlight "23 1/2 Things" and discovery exercises to help staff become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, and video and image hosting sites.
To familiarize yourself with this project, be sure to read the About page. The FAQs should answer most of your questions about this program. If not, then please add your question to the FAQ page as a comment.
So fasten your seat belts, grab your mouse and get ready for a discovery adventure … and remember, it's OK to play in the library and have fun! The program starts today, September 24th and concludes in 13 weeks. Go at your pace, just make sure to enjoy your trip!

I've never found computer programs easy to learn; but hopefully, if I survive these 13 weeks, I'll surprise myself.
Hello everyone...hopefully this will be fun and easy to learn.
Hello all!
I'm looking forward to participating. I'm curious to see how this all works out and how many fellow coworkers will also take part in this program.
I'm here and ready to learn.

Hi! I'm interested in what we're doing here. I think this first part was counterintuitive; shouldn't the instructions on how to start tell you to go to Google blogspot and create a username?
Good to be here.
Encouraging staff to learn new techs is pointing to a stronger staff knowledge structure and a much more efficient customer services that QL will be able to provide to our customers.
This is just the beginning of a great future.
Great, let's get started.

i guess this is the most popular place to post comments, so i'll add one here too. sorry if i'm appearing in too many places, but still confused as to which is the "real" blog.
Don't know how long I will last, but I started today.
I'm looking forward to participating and learning new things. So many great things are happening with Web 2.0!
Cool to know people have started this already...hey can we order speakers for our work PCs now that we should be listening to videos as well? ;-)
Hi all,

Once a comment is posted on a blog, can it be edited by the writer?
You can delete your comments by clicking on the trashcan. As far as I know, you cannot edit, but perhaps there is a way. If someone knows, chime in.
