#1 - Welcome to HEB23!!!


Welcome to HEB23's Web 2.0 in 2010 site & blog. Chances are if you've found your way here you're either:

a member of HEBISD's Library Media Services staff who's participating in the Web 2.0 challenge.
interested in learning about and playing around (yes, playing is allowed in libraries) with some new web 2.0 tools that will help you expand your information literacy toolbox
- or -
are just interested in earning a cool USB MP3 player and possibility winning a new Kindle or Nook electronic reader!
Either way… I'm glad you're here!!

HEB23 is online learning program that encourages staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people, society and libraries access information and communicate with each other. Over the course of the next fifteen weeks, this website will highlight “23 Things" and discovery exercises to help staff become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, and video and image hosting sites.

To familiarize yourself with this project, be sure to read the About page. The FAQs should answer most of your questions about this program. If not, then please add your question to the FAQ page as a comment.So fasten your seat belts, grab your mouse and get ready for a discovery adventure… and remember, it's OK to play in the library and have fun!
