Thing # 20 Facebook and myspace.

Now you can find me on facebook.com; as I am working on the 23things. Throw some spaghetti on my wall! I found other 23thing participants here.
In Facebook I joined 2 groups, Libraians and Technology, and Lib 2.0 group to communicate with someone else in my same job.
Facebook may be the fastest growing social network: It is a quick way to connect. You find out what's going on. My view of it is that I found it more complicated in that it offers more choices (is the term mashups?) of ways to connect all in one. Yes you get an integrated conglomeration of technology. In other words it takes some study. Libraries could use this to be connected to a lot of people at once.

MySpace How are libraries using MySpace? There are two links I will look at tomorrow. I looked at Hennepin's myspace. It was really important to relate to the teens.
Did you find anything on a library's MySpace page that would be useful for your library?
If you created your own MySpace page, how do you plan to use it?
It would require a IT person to manage the MySpace account. We are just too small of a library for the expence. We have a web page now, so this may develop in the future. It would provide more immediate communication to and from public.
