Week 3 Social Networking Tools

As the mother of three 20-somethings who live and die by MySpace I thought I may find this week's assignments intriguing. Instead, I found them to be irrelevant to my work environment as it is today. FaceBook and LinkedIn seem only to be valuable if they are constantly being updated. LinkedIn proved useless as the "colleagues" section contained absolutely no one that was still working at any of my past or present employers. FaceBook is interesting. I did find some clever librarian groups to join. It is blocked by our firewall so if I did come up with a great professional use it would be for networking purposes only. I am so looking foward to Week 4's assignment.
