I have been using social media from the start, to keep track of what my daughters are up to (Facebook), follow news or promote events on topics of interest (Twitter) or keep track of artistic friends new output (Tumblr). I started off very enthusiastic about blogs too, and I gave a talk about 'Blogs and Knowledge management in business' to the fellows at Templeton college back in 2003, to which the IT manager commented 'Oh blogs will never take off, - newsgroups are more useful' (would love to hear his thoughts on that now, 11 years down the line).
Social media is now used extensively in the library world, and I would like to learn from this term's programme, how to make full and better use of all the different tools, and investigate further how they interact and complement each other.
