Web 2.0

Overall, the Web 2.0 experience has been a really good one. I loved the self paced style, and that there was something for everyone, whether you are a novice to blogging or not. As a Facebook afficionado, I was also pleased that others got the chance to give it the thumbs up or down. I didn't try Twitter, it just seems like an abbreviated form of Facebook to me, though I think the challenge of 140 characters is well within my reach, since I text message my two teenage daughters, and that is the limiting parameter there, too.

One of my favorite tools, that I am still getting acquainted with, is the Tagging tool "delicious". I love that you can tag things, whether at work or home, at a friend's house or your own home, and have it follow you. Without that tool, I felt like I needed to print things, then file them... only, it would usually get filed in the "File 13", and even when found, not necessarily know why I felt the need...

With "delicious", I can tag, and create folders, so that it all makes more sense. Super cool!!!

I also found the article about help with passwords very, very useful.

Thanks, Web 2.0 Committee!!!
