My experience with Learning 2.0 could best be described as A Comedy of Errors. Laughed a lot at myself. Much of my learning was by accident or something I stumbled upon.
I appreciated the exposure to Web 2.0 Tools. Discovered their usefulness but never really got a handle on anything. Hope to go back, spend some time, and really embrace some of the things. The time restraints and interruptions really frustrated me. Would have preferred doing it during a less hectic quarter of the year. Summer or December would have been better.
Would definitely participate again. Many of my comedic error moments were chances to grow and discover.
Thank you for putting together a fun experience.

! WT
Exploring this thing I encountered another language. Thank goodness for netlingo to explain what BFF and IDK mean. To really get a handle on this I'd need to spend more the a half hour on this thing. If I would, maybe I could say I was "bilingo."
I do sense I learned more on this thing then some of the others. Was clueless about MEEBO. The David Lee King page was a great idea with the instant catalog help.
I would miss the personal touch if libraries went too overboard with IM.
I was not successful with using IM with Ask A Librarian. When I click the box the cursor went to the smaller box. I typed two questions and didn't know what to do next.

PODCASTS
Of all the Web 2.0 tools, podcasts have been used a lot. Catching up on programs I could no longer see, I'd watch podcasts of them. Not really enjoyable as the sound and motion aren't always in sync. Would often try to find out about music or books reviewed on NPR by using their podcast. Today I looked at and listened to some.
The book reviews on Book Talk would be useful for library book groups. Podcasts could also help with professional growth listening to podcasts of discussions on topics related to your job.

Back again
What I remember about #19 was I tried StumbleOn as it was an organizer but it needed to be downloaded so I stopped and went to I think zippo.com. Liked StumbleOn as it described my Learning 2.0 experience as stumbling upon stuff.
YouTube distraction #20
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_s4Xq-gSfoU I was surprised to find and enjoyed. This too is very addictive and you can go and go and go finding more and more and more. It seems much is humor. Could be used for library information sharing
