Wk 12 views - Social networking

OK, the link from "quick videoclip" gets you to the (beta) site but then the video doesn't seem to be able to get started. I tried the Commoncraft version at http://www.commoncraft.com/store/socialnetworking and that is fine.

I thought the Animanga Club page was really cool and the ALA's page really had lots of things to draw people in to be involved. However, the client population in US is quite substantial. Would it work for the UC population? That said, a lot of students do seem to like looking at Facebook in the library. Maybe the library can make a network reaching to the faculties and the staff there and via them to the students. Don't know what we can promote though, and it sounds like a lot more work than stuff in the other Learning 2.0 sessions. (Or maybe I'm just feeling really weary after finishing 12 weeks of Learning in 2 weeks ... plus it's a Friday before a long weekend!)

When you have finished this week, let me know and I will send your certificate of accomplishment in Web2.0 pronto! Good work!
