3. My kids use facebook regularly; they used to use and I'm glad they don't any more. I'ved used flickr, but not regularly
6. What are your thoughts on this Web 2.0 phenomenon?
answered question 12
skipped question 3
1. I have so much to learn. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me and forcing me to become more savvy:-)
2. I don't know what you are talking about.
3. I think it's important to look at who's using it and how...I don't necessarily use them on a regular basis because I don't want some of pictures, info so openly available.
4. Web 2.0 is interactive web? it has it's uses, it's catching on quickly. comment: I do not have a google account, but I depend on google and use it a 'million' times a day. My kids both have google accounts (email) I use Wikipedia, and I also have other wikis that I use.
5. scarey, what people are posting, had potential for great good and great harm
6. I think that we are limiting our face-to-face contact by using the Web so much to maintain friendships
7. Not sure yet. Have always wanted to go on and get to know how they work.
8. Clueless!
9. Is providing many opportunities to increase the resources I can access to address the problems I raise. has a great future for our profession if we took the time to learn how to use the tools effectively
10. Wondering why its a phenomenon
11. I feel like a dinosaur, like most people my age -- obviously except for you....
12. Just another example of increasing improvements in the speed and ease of communications and networking. With respect to blogs; there are too many to separate out the useful stuff from the clutter. Although I have them useful when I've wanted to get things like product reviews or consumer reports.
