3 things got lost

Lost in my blogland are my IM experience, my social networking and del.icio.us, oh no! I instant messaged with two colleagues here and sent a Sesame street video about eating cookies (chocolate chip, of course) in the library. I had never instant messaged with anyone before. I have seen the meebo account at the reference desk in action, sometimes "instant" isn't possible though. I guess if the IM account is "on" all the time you can get to it when you have time. Do I sound like an old fogy? I have used the 10things meebo, yea for me!

Speaking of old I joined Eons the social network for the over 50 crowd. I did read an interesting article about how holiday traditions can change when the "kids" leave home. I will pay attention and pass along the games to keep my mind active. I joined a recipe sharing/loving group and invited a couple of friends to join as well. I joined goodreads and have shared book titles with those friends.

As far as delicious goes, I thought it was food related! I added a best movies link from the New York Times. I can see that shared information is a valuable tool, it just takes time to read all there is "out there". I can see the use of the tags for movies, films, books for the library.
