Today I learned...

how to insert a video clip from YouTube to my Blogspot blog. (It's easy, copy the embed link from YouTube, switch to the blog window go to Edit HTML. Paste. Post.) BUT, it means I get to share my favorite Mini-Musical EVER. You WILL need sound! Time for me to go back to Reading on a Dream!!!

Twitter

Today I bowed to the pressure of all the people who wished I would sign up a Twitter account. I took it upon myself as a way of expanding my Web 2.0 horizons. Now that I have it though, I'm not sure how I went without it. And it isn't Twitter so much that I adore, it is the Twitbin add on. I like to stay very current on news and world events, because I feel it is important to be knowledgeable on as wide a range of subjects as possible.

Anyway, now that I have Twitter, I am imagining all the uses it could have for the library. We could use it to announce library programing, we could use it to announce new books as they come in. There are so many things we could do! I'm very excited about it.
