Week 7 MLA 2.0

Write a blog entry discussing how you felt about the experience of using YouTube and what you think about this service. Do you see any potential uses for Podcasting in the library? If so what and why?

I think both of these technologies could easliy be used for orientation or for teaching purposes. Currently we have software that allows us to create what we call 5 minutes exercises that taech users some aspect of using the library or other technology that they are required to us. These e-learning pieces are only availbale at work. To be able to offer these sessions no matter where the users were would be a great advantages. The thing that we will need to do in the future will be to convince our IT department to allow access to these technologies which they currently do not.
