Social Networking is a means to connect with others via the internet. A forum connecting a user to friends, family, work colleagues, as well as like minded people or special interest groups, e.g.book lovers, gamers, sporting groups, to name a few. Certain networking sites such as Pinterest, Facebook or Twitter will suggest connections to hobbies, friends or groups that may be of interest to users, based on their own user history.
Social networking sites that I use:
Twitter - for study
Blogger - for study
Second Life - for study
YouTube - for personal
Facebook - for personal, work and study
Wiki - for work
Flickr - for personal
Delicious - for personal
Pinterest - for personal
What I expect to learn from INF206:
I hope to gain confidence in using Web 2.0 technologies. To have a greater understanding of the use of social networking sites and how they can be used within a library environment. As well an understanding of the social etiquette and boundaries of social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.
