Web 2.0

Moving along into "thing 2"
BMJ editorial - good to see - the big challenge is getting increased participation. some people are not big on embracing technolgy (age old dilemma). The article has a lot of good references to check out too.

Stephen's Lighthouse - lots of good stuff here - a bit overwhelming. but i took a quiz on smartphones and i like the latest post about "50 things" - important to think about

LOVED the video - saw it once before but i can't remember where

I'm the kind of person who wants to go in and "clean up" all of the unused websites that have been abandoned.... I hate clutter! So i'll try not to think about it

BLOG PROMPTS
1. why take this course? why not? i'll learn neat and interesting stuff - i can amaze my friends at cocktail parties
2. some of those videos are from 3 years ago (posted) - i don't think i was aware of YouTube 3 years ago
3. the Wayback Machine is cool....sites are definitely more user-friendly now. The old ICSI.org website is a dinosaur!
4. at 2 different times, probably spent about 2 hours reading and surfing around

extra bonus: not sure if i think the number of articles on PubMed is large or small. Seems to me that this stuff isn't going away. Younger people are embracing this sort of stuff. Us "older" sorts better get w/ the program (change or get left behind)
