Dead trees and the 2.0

I have always loved the library, the smell of the paper, the love of the rows and rows of books, a complete lack of understanding of the Dewey Decimal System. I think it has been about a year since I set foot in a library, which is sad.

Why this talk of libraries and dead tree books?

I have been asked by a former co-worker to teach a series of classes about MySpace, Facebook, YouTube and the general web 2.0/social network scene.

I am really excited (and slightly nervous) about this and it really means that I have to brush up on my MySpace. Oh boy.

I guess the library isn’t just about the dead trees any more.

    I can’t believe they want a class taught on myspace and facebook. That’s crazy.

    Would it be more like seminar or an actual class students get credit for?
