Ok, so finally I was compelled to set up a facebook! Wammo to people from the past connect with me in 30 seconds. Scary! Still really good to catch up so of course the social network is great in this respect. It just does my head in how much time I can waste though, the old I wonder what that video is, oh, who sent me that message, must comment on your photos. Before you know it, it is way past your bed time and you just know you have a big day at the library tomorrow! :-)
I have looked at a few library sights and even joined a few groups, but as yet to see real value. Seems to be on the whole a lot of mindless conversations. (oops did I say that). Maybe I just haven't found the right ones. I did think about joining the "Library folk at the Pub' but unfortunately that would involve 1000km drive to catch up.
I can see how it might be useful in bringing library groups together with a common interest and think exploring this might be useful for the future. Will have to wait and see. I feel a bit of a Luddite as everyone else is so enamoured with social networking. At the very minimun I can think about social networking classes for the masses. Might read some other blogs for inspiration.
