Thing 11 Social Media

I don't see much use for this as a tool for the public in the Library. There are way too many different interests to cover them all in a single Social media site. Within Library staff it could help employees keep up with recent stories concerning libraries. I see this more as a productivity detractor unless it is finely tuned to only bring up articles about topics specific to your job. I have read articles I have seen on these sites, but usually they weren't work related.

I created accounts on Mixxit and Digg. Mixxit allows you to fine tune your interests more easily with tags.
