Podcasts

Audio Podcasts are great for busy people! It's good to be able to listen to stuff while stuck in traffic or on a plane. Lots of people prefer to learn by listening rather than reading, & how good is it for people with vision impairments? Libraries can use Podcasts for instructions & information too, it just takes more staff time of course, which we never have enough of! I like your 12 seconds Kate, doesn't it go fast?

twitter & tweetdeck

Yeah sure there is a lot of not really necessary stuff on twitter, but all I remember is in the middle of a 2 day conference, Kate Bunker was the first one there to hear that Tony Abbott had won the leadership - which was a big shock at the time!
If anyone is confused by twitter try www.tweetdeck.com
it helps to manage & organise all your tweets & followers, & can link to facebook & myspace.
