Week 2: Blogging and Online Communication

May 17, 2007

You all are amazing. This blog has had so many hits! Thanks for making Sue and I feel all our work was worth it.

Please Please don’t be overwhelmed by this week’s lesson. There are 4 individual lessons each will take you about 15 to 25 minutes. This week is packed because blogging is the basis of these lessons. Week 4 will be about Flickr and only one lesson. So you will have some time to breath and/or catch up.

If you want extra credit please send sue an email about what you did and where. We may miss it otherwise.

Off we go to explore the bliblioblogosphere! and other online communication.

Lesson #1 Explore the blogosphere. Visit some blogs to see what it’s all about. 

Lesson #2
Enter the blogosphere. Go to
WordPress.com and use these helps
to create a blog. Then use these helps to post an entry in your blog. Why not blog about why you want to learn more about Library 2.0? or about your experience setting up a blog?


Lesson #3:
 Send instant messages to coworkers using meebo.
 Instructions.


Lesson #4:
 Learn about Twitter
