#7 Google books

Without even realising it I have been using Google books when I look up books in SCIS OPAC there is a link "About This Book" which is of course Google books.  Will be passing on this knowledge to a couple of teachers who I often order books for as it may help them to preview the book and decide if they still want to purchase it.

#5 Google docs

Although I use Google all the time, had never looked at Google docs.  I was able to set up a spreadsheet of DVD's we need to order and then sent this to the Librarian and she was then able to add what she wanted and more information.  My idea is we can both access it as the DVD's are purchased or new ones required instead of post its everywhere that get lost.  Have thought of a few other situations that I think this could be useful at our Library but need to see if the other people I want to share the information with are happy to use this method. 

#4 Web 2.0

Have read lots of the information on Web 2.0 and like probably everyone had already heard of Wikis, Blogs, Facebook and so on, but was not a user because of lack of knowledge and also a little (or maybe a lot) of  fear about it all.  Is it safe etc?

So hopefully as I become familar through this course this will all improve and I might be able to keep up with my kids on Facebook.

My thoughts after reading is basically that Web 1.0 is the Information and Web 2.0 is the Interaction.  Web 2.0 is also about attitude not just technology.
