Thing Number Twenty: YouTube, You Can't Always Get What You Want...

If you have noticed anything at all on this Blog it might be the You Tube video of House...the Television show starring Hugh Laurie. HL is an acerbic Doctor at Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, in New Jersey. Each episode is truly based upon extremely unusual medical cases.

House and HL have won many awards ---BTW now in it's fourth year.

A special episode of House will air right after tonights Super Bowl!

And the infamous song from the philosopher/musician Mike Jagger:

"You can't always get what you want...but if you try sometimes, you get what you need."

Thing Number Seventeen: Playing around with PBWiki

This is my Blog added to the pbwiki.

http://plcmclearning.pbwiki.com/Favorite+Blogs

It was a Wiki that had a numerous amount of information in it...to say the least.

Thing Number Sixteen: So what’s in a wiki?

I enjoyed viewing a WetPaint Wiki which seemed to be an "open" type of library Wiki.
Open means it is has an open edit feature enabled in it to users.
It also has an interesting application in the form of a "collection" of Library Pod Casts in a very small embedded application.

Thing Number Fifteen: On Library 2.0 & Web 2.0

Dr. Wendy's comments on Web 2.0 - Where will it take libraries --- a library's "product to service experience" is well worth pondering. She views Library 2.0 as a "product" where we can download digital books etc. Her view of Library 3.0... I will not say are we there yet :) but we might be there sooner than you realize and Dr. Wendy believes at this point we are a "service". A must read!

In many ways she seems to be right on track, yet I need to interject that I believe we at all .s (points) to be service oriented. This is not at all in disagreement with Dr. Wendy but in pointing out whether we are Library 1.0 through Library 4.0 or Library 5.0 , i hope I am alive to see this one!

It will be an interesting future time... and the DeLorean has brought us Back to the Future at least one more time!
