I was so close to finishing the 23 Things program after yesterdays
steps 19 & 20 that today I'm pushing on to do steps 21 (done) and
22 (here it is) and give my feedback for step 23. I already use Skype at
home to communicate with my Dad in France and my brother in Queensland
and I must say it is a fantastic way to talk to and see people that I
may not meet in person for years. For Step 22 I thought I'd have a go
at Google Talk as I've seen Meebo in action on the VU Law Infolink page. I've now installed the Google Talk gadget on my blog and have added a colleague, Lou Connell, to the contacts, and have been able to 'chat' with her, even though she is in the next office. As with Skype & Meebo, this is a great way to interact with students, without them having to come into the Library and maybe without us having to leave home!
I'm looking forward to seeing these communication tools incorporated into our Information Service in the near future.
