Morning Fri 19th
Red gold and pink sunrise streaked across pale blue; gums and fringes of pine silhouetted black to the east. Wentworth Falls Lake rippling dark grey ink; forbidding. Unwelcome fone conversation disturbing our regular commuter quiet.
Weekly progress report on 2.0:
- Tiny url working well
- Realised the power and limitations of collective intelligence and collective filtering.
- To arrive at a better understanding of transliteracy and the needs of the individual as contributor to the collective.
- To investigate jing and pageflakes
- To add some footage to the blog just for fun (perhaps Folk Festival’s One Africa or Snake Oil Merchants or Noriko Tadano from youtube ?? Or staff picnic on Sunday)
- To organise links, bookmarks and feeds into a more organised stream (currently on Google Reader, blog and Delicious). Tagging on Delicious seems the popular choice.
- To successfully send a bookmark to inf506 Delicious
- To explore tagging further and identify trends using tagging
- To suspend cynicism and try to get past the 2nd doorway in inf506 sl and explore Shirley Webber’s info literacy sl constructs
Understanding and awareness still very small and time required very large! The ‘to do list’ will surely get longer as resources and information surface as quickly as questions are posed … seems to exhibit great synchronicity this study of 2.0 …
Surely ‘social media anxiety’ must be as prevalent as ‘library anxiety’! has it been documented? Does a library with social media resources empower the individual and lessen ‘library anxiety’? or does 2.0 bring ‘anxiety’ out of the library and into general society? do more people feel less literate in the digital world where data is constantly clamouring for organisation and attention? Or does confidence rise with individual ability to sift and access information without mediation from experts or expert systems?
2.0 has 2 faces. Trend analysis must be available already, especially from the tertiary education sector …
