Ok, I'm going to be honest here. I don't think I'll keep up my 2.0 blog. I have learned a lot of neat tricks and seen some great gadgets along the way, but I already use a lot of the Library 2.0 tools in my everyday tasks. I already find it difficult to make time for myself to eat properly, go to the gym, spend time with family and friends, etc.... outside of work. Long hours and stress have left me feeling drained. The last thing I want when I come home from work using all of the Library 2.0 tools is to jump on a computer and talk about work related activities.
Did I mention that while trying to complete 23 things, I've had to hire a new employee, had a family member pass away, welcomed a family member home from Iraq for a few weeks, started planning for my wedding, attended 2 art shows to try and grow my photography business, work over 40 hours a week to work on publicizing the events at ACLD, and maintain a sane mental state?
Regardless of all of this, I will make one commitment! I will go back and post my findings on all of the challenges I was unable to accomplish due to time. I hope to delve deeper into some aspects of podcasting and video usage in libraries and how this technology helps with the promotion of library services.
In addition, I do vow to remain current by keeping up with a variety of Library Journals which interest me.
What I've learned is useful and my greatest hope is that some of these tools will make me more efficient in my quest for knowledge.
