I am planning a presentation to interested staff on the whole Web 2.0 thing and how it can work with staff.
So thinking about what is the real essence of Web 2.0 and what this means. The really most useful to me is the blog and the use of RSS feeds. This has essentially changed my relation with information and has impacted hugely on how I utilise the media.
Instead of the media controlling what information I access I can now adapt and alter through RSS feeds. No more rubbish and so much more environmentally ok.
Flickr I think is wonderful and the social activity sites of myspace and bebo are interesting. Twitter leaves me dead, but wikis seem to have huge educational possibilities.
Digg I'm only starting to look at and second life while I'm there seems too huge at present.
Delicious is great both for me to store stuff but also to look at others.
ots to think about and lots to develop. What I do know is it is all about moving forward and developing ides.
