Web 2.0 videos on Atomic Learning

If you are a visual learner, you may benefit from looking at the Web 2.0 learning material on Atomic Learning, a training program the Library subscribes to.

Here's the blurb from Atomic Learning click on the link from within the Library to go the the list of lessons:

Learn all about Web 2.0 with Atomic Learning’s new workshop! The new Web 2.0 workshop explains what Web 2.0 means and also teaches learners how to use Web 2.0 tools, such as blogs, wikis, social networking sites (MySpace, Facebook, etc.), RSS feeds and more.
“Going through this workshop is kind of like sitting next to me, one-on-one,” says workshop creator and educator, Vicki Davis. “I created each tutorial as if I were sitting next to a beginner, teaching them what Web 2.0 is all about and helping them to start working within its applications.”

Introduction

Welcome to the Ruminations of BlogmeisterB

Blogs are great for people with something to say--most people have something to say--problem is getting someone to listen :>)

I hope in this blog to entertain myself [at least] with some ruminations on the state of the universe.

My good friend Merriam Webster defines Ruminate as:

1 : to chew again what has been chewed slightly and swallowed : chew the cud
2 : to engage in contemplation : REFLECTsynonym see PONDER

Here's to chewing cud and then chewing it again.

Your pal
