Week 6 -15

Library and web 2.0 - well that was interesting, although how much will actually occur is pretty open to debate. Most sound like descriptions of the writers particular utopia, which as we all know doesn't often translate into reality due to money, politics, people etc. It also may not apply to a lot of people who just aren't that into computers except when they have to be. I often think people who write articles about libraries obsess about how libraries have to be super relevant and super connected to everyone - when no organization is everything to everyone.

Still, anyone can dream and it can lead to innovation and great ideas... I liked "to a temporary place in time" 's cycle of libraries and trends and loved the video about web 2.0.

It will be very interesting to see what develops with libraries in the near future that's for sure :)
