I’m blogging as fast as I can: Jumping on the 2.0 bandwagon
April 2nd, 2006 Stewart Posted in Uncategorized |
A nice introduction to the basic concepts and mild controversy behind Library 2.0. Nothing wrong with the ideas here, but people should realize that it may be somewhat off-putting to librarians who have always supported these basic tenets to watch as a bunch of good ideas that have been around for a while are made to sound brand-new and slapped with a 2.0 label just to be trendy.
Library 2.0 will mean more when we’re all sharing an AJAX-based, social, tagged, open source integrated system. Of course, as long as vendors keep selling us the same old, slow, expensive systems, we’ll probably keep them in business.
