On Thursday, May 10, in West Palm Beach, Florida, I have had a two-hour presentation with the SEFLIN board about social software. Here is the “virtual handout” of related links and bits of things useful after the talk. [updated 5-10, 5-11.]
This presentation, to start with. (It’s in PowerPoint. Updated 5-11.)
Blogs, IM and SMS, Flickr, YouTube, Second Life, Twitter, Librarything, de.licio.us , Facebook, Myspace
Some specific examples and sources (updated 5-11): lolcats, lolbrarians, the quiz by Pew Internet and American Life, David Lee King’s list of libraries on Twitter, Blogger, WordPress, Cingular IM commercial, Dance Dance Revolution, Jessamyn’s Ubuntu installation video on YouTube, IM jargon, Dr. Strangelove, Cher, the Icarus blog, ALA’s gaming symposium, and Twitterlit.
Door prize: my list of Bloglines subscriptions (don’t take it too literally; remember what I said about cherry-picking)
If you have any follow-up questions, please do post them here or send them to me personally. Remember, yes you CAN has cheezburger!
Posted on this day, other years:
- Saison du Mont, Again (Dave II) - 2009
- A "Series" of Thoughts - 2006
- Why School Is Good For Me - 2005
- FRL Spotlight Review: O.k., o.k., I Like Wolfe - 2005
Loved the ‘most boring blog in the world’— you might also have mentioned the bizarre obsession I have seen for corporate podcasts- as if creating an interesting recorded talk was a natural skill that anyone can do.
Thanks Karen,
I got lots of ideas. I actually finished transferring home and work bookmarks to del.icio.us this weekend. We’ll incorporate some of this to the regional summer conference for SEFLIN — Energize 2.0.
The link to the general web page is

I’ll be adding a wiki and other toys. We plan to have the computer lab at the conference center open to be a sandbox for the day.
This will be great! I had a wonderful time at SEFLIN. Great people, great opportunity. Have fun at your Energize 2.0 conference.
