The end is near (1)

These assignments have been very interesting and at times challenging. I guess one thing that has been brought home once again is how much time most people now spend on the internet and also how much people share their thoughts and ideas online these days. The online world has made sharing much more common and also easier to do. It makes me wonder if people now have a tendency to keep things less private than they used to.
I already belonged to several online social groups before these assignments, but was made more aware of the variety and different types of online groups that are out there. It also made me more aware of library related online groups .
I enjoy using computers, so l did enjoy the assignments, some more than others, as some of you may have noticed with the summer songs assignment. That really took me on a trip down memory lane. I started listening to music at quite a young age and remember many songs from many different summers and so couldn't resist giving this post's title a song name and including a link to the song on YouTube.

As a "supposed" facilitator, I feel I didn't do enough and kind of wish that there had been a set of suggestions as to what we should do in terms of contacting team members, etc.
I do think that for our library the assignments created a camaraderie between us as we did the assignments. We shared ideas and comments and helped each other as we were learning new things.
