23 Elephants

THING 22 — Keeping up

I feel like I’ve just begun, like I should go back and look at many of the things again.  The categories, grouping of links and information on the 23 Things site made a very useful guide.  I’m not proficient in some things but I have a greater awareness of the 23 Things.  Since things constantly change it is really only the start.  We need continual dialogue and shared information.  I think the best way for me to “keep up” is to set aside time –as if I’m at a workshop.  I need to ignore e-mail, phone etc. and focus on reading, trying things, visiting sites.  I’m thinking that I need to get an iPod or mobile device of my own to experience the uses.  Not sure yet of budget.  I’m also wondering if we should set up adhoc groups to make recommendations, maybe a “what’s new” group.  I would like to pursue the idea of classes on 23 things for the public.  Maybe we could design our own “Things” version for the public.  It would need publicity & promotion.  This might be through the e-Branch.  The challenge is making time and making ita priority.
