I enjoyed this process of learning about Web 2.0 applications applied to libraries. I appreciated that someone else did the research on each Thing so I didn't have to try and find it on my own. I imagined that was really helpful for those librarians that are not techies. I don't see any changes need to be made to the first 23 Things. I see that another round of 23 More Things that I look forward to exploring. I do love continuing education!
One word to describe my experience: exploration.
I haven't resolved my concern that we may be playing catch up to a group that has already moved on to something else. I do think offering it as an online experience will catch librarians up faster to that elusive young adult group faster than a college course devoted to it!
I found this article in Newsweek that articulates what I am thinking so much better than I could say about social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace.
