Week 5: Thing #12 Nings II Library 2.0

http://library20.ning.com/

This Ning was more interesting than I expected it to be. At first glance the home page seemed text heavy and confusing and a few of the group names sounded weird (Vegetarian Vegan Librarians, c'mon), but the forums page offered a list of good discussion topics. I enjoyed reading some of the postings in the forum, Defining Web 2.0/Library 2.0.

I am not joining this Ning, but have bookmarked it in Del.icio.us in order to return to it from time to time. I thought I might add this Ning to my list of RSS feeds, but decided not to when I previewed the feeds. The original formatting of the website itself makes navigation and selecting the forums that I'm interested in easier.

Besides, it's one more thing!

I don't think that "vegetarian vegan librarians" is so weird. After all, isn't web 2.0 all about social networking? In my opinion, often vegans feel very alone. At conferences, for example, sometimes there is nothing much to eat. Wouldn't it be nice for such folks to find each other and to go out to eat together? That is just my opinion. Here is my blog:
