I started the California 23 Things after taking the InfoPeople eBranch class so I have continued the blog I started then. Since that time I have taken a 2.0 class in applications to children's services and have played my way through the list of 23 things.
There are many more "things" listed in library 2.1. Many of the things are toys and some could really be good library tools. It is essential that library staff grapple with the way information access, storage, and retrieval are changing because social networking underlies 2.0. All over the globe people want to participate in organizing the information that is important to them and they want to share their perspectives on that information. As libraries have provided books and meeting rooms and programs as forums for information sharing so now they offer eforums--blogs, wikis, deep links on websites--libraries are changing and they are remaining the same.
