I jumped off the deep end. I've signed up for a Facebook account, and a Twitter account. Exploring the wonders??? of social networking. I'm not quite sure about finding friends. I don't know of anyone who is on Facebook other than my husband and daughter. And Twitter. I signed up right before the Texas Library Assoc. conference and tried to get out the word to use a certain hash tag (makes posts searchable by that tag). I suggested #TLA09.While at the conference I found that there were two additional hash tags people were using. We'll need to find some way next to to have an offical tag set. Unfortunaltly there is no way to communicate the tag to use within Twitter. Although I did search http://hashtags.org before I suggested the tag and didn't find anything in use. I guess I'll have to start earlier next year and find someone involved with the conference who can make an offical tag.

 

I have found all this to be a little overwhelming, trying to keep up with reading and posting. We'll see if I get the hang of it after trying for awhile.

 

What is your favorite social networking tool?
