WEB 2.0: AN OVERVIEW, Tuesday 9, £260+VAT(£325+VAT)
http://www.aslib.com/training/5/03.html
The phrase 'social networking' is no longer contained within the field of knowledge management, and there is a feeling that the information chain has undergone radical restructuring, without anyone saying so. People you know are becoming well informed, undertaking the roles of search specialist, critic and even publisher. If you do not know how information is being communicated, then it is hard, if not impossible, to find what you need, or even to be aware it exists. This one day event explains what is meant by web 2.0 applications, and looks at using weblogs, rss, wikis, podcasts, social linking and tagging, shared authoring tools, instant messaging, and social networking sites, within the context of an information management environment. No prior use of Web 2.0 is needed, but familiarity with using the Internet Explorer would be useful. All terms will be explained, and documentation, including follow-up links and reading, will be provided. Course Director: Lyn Robinson
