Thing 12- Facebook

I currently have a Facebook page and do find this to be a very useful way for patrons to communicate.  My daughter is CONSTANTLY on Facebook and has hundreds of friends----but me-- around 40 or so. In my earlier post of Facebook, I thought it was pointless to have one for FPL--but maybe it is a good idea.  I say this because many people use FB as a way of obtaining info (I wouldn't) but others may.

Thing 11- Linked In

Just found several friends and family members on the Linked In site.  I think of this site as Facebook for grown-ups with jobs. I think this site is PERFECT for professional people seeking other professional people.  Facebook= little red Corvette,  Linked In= Pinto.  I don't care for either.

Thing 7 IM

Just completed my first IM on Communicator to Adela.  I have used IM at home to talk with family members.  I can see where this tool would be useful for someone that sits at a desk all day -- but not for me. I know that I am behind the times, but I just like to call a person (plus, I don't type that fast).

Thing 5

Just completed my first tweet! I could see a TEEN using this ALL DAY LONG...because they tend to be into "WHAT'S HOT". Personally, I could care less about what someone is doing every second of the day.

Thing 10

Thing 10- Library Thing---MY FAVORITE!!!!
I think I love it more than chocolate! I am in book HEAVEN!! I would TOTALLY use this site!

Thing 8

Tagging-- sounds like something a teenager would do-- AND get in trouble for!!! I think this would be great for TEENS.  I mean- really young kids would not take the time to read it (if they could), and really old ones wouldn't be able to read it because everything looks all jumbled together. My teenagers would find this useful, but not me.

Thing 6

Just finished Thing 6- DIGG.  I can see how this site could be another way for people to get their information and give their opinions-- but  I did not care for it.  I think it's the whole voting/ranking of news stories that really turned me off with this site.
