Ning/Scott County Libraries

The SCOTT COUNTY LIBRARIES group has disappeared from NING.

WJMN

I skipped ahead to WJMN after reading some of the participants blogs. I was disappointed to see how few librarians make their names, libraries, etc public to MN librarians. I did find two former classmates/co-workers whom I have asked to be friends.

This would make a great site for sharing ideas(selection, policies) and just catching up with co-workers and library friends.

I am also excited about having one place to check for class opportunities!

I found WJMN easy for sign up/registration, inviting friends and browsing classes.

Twitter Friends

I discovered 2 friends on Twitter, although it looks like neither friend uses Twitter regularly. I have invited several personal friends to join Twitter.

140 characters is not very much! I'm not sure how much I will use Twitter. If I were working on a joint project with several librarians outside of the library system it might be helpful.
