Welcome to Tangled Up in Info: Explorations 1 & 2

Actually "Tangled Up in Books" was my preferred title, but it was already taken.

Exploration 1 was fun reading, although I was quite familiar with much of it. The article on Web 2.0 from Next Space: The OCLC Newsletter was very interesting. Most of it was review but some of it wasn't. Into a New World of Librarianship by Michael Stephens was nothing short of fascinating. I found the article to be quite positive and optimistic. I'm hoping that people who are a bit intimidated by technology (and the Web) will be open to changing technologies and how they can help us help patrons. It's really more exciting than terrifying!

Exploration 2 was pretty simple, since I've been blogging for several years and already contribute to four blogs. (Hey, what's one more?) I'll have more to write later after I've tinkered with 2.0 a bit more.

Welcome to the fun world of Web 2.0. I like the title of your blog...I often feel tangled up in info (sometimes in a good way, sometimes not so much).
