TheCorey's Thought #23: Thing #23 - Aloha

As the late great George Carlin noted quipped:

In Hawaii they say, "aloha." That's a nice one, It means both "hello" and "good-bye" Which just goes to show, if you spend enough time in the sun you don't know whether you're coming or going.

Which is appropriate as I come to the end of Nebraska Learns 2.0 - it is both a goodbye to what we've been doing and a hello to all the discoveries that come our way. In one way or another, we're all learning 2.0 as both the world and net-world change to new generations and new ideas. Sometimes its good, other times it's less than good.

Well, that's enough philosophy for a Thursday. While I haven't always been enthusiastic about Library / Web 2.0 and what it means, I am glad to have participated. LibraryThing is something I'll keep my eye on. This may not be the last time I blog. Wikis have possibility, especially once I finally get my head around it. I'm not so sold on RSS or Twitter. But, I know what they are and hopefully I can be at least minimally helpful if someone wants my help. I don't know if there's much that could have been done to have been improved. I would do this again down the line if the NLC decides to do another discovery program (time and schedule willing - looks like Lincoln is in for another rough budget year).

So long and Thanks for all the Fish.
