a nice discovery - free social media resources from GCFlearnfree.org

I am currently preparing for a public info session next week in my library on all things Twitter. I'm good at helping people get started and then leaving them to it, but this has meant I've actually had to create a logical presentation and for someone with my particular brand of stream-of-consciousness that isn't necessarily that easy (go ahead Pam, say it out loud). Plus I haven't had to do something like this in quite a while (the last session I ran would have been on eBooks etc last year some time).

Anyway, along the way I have discovered GCFlearnfree.org (Goodwill Community Foundation) and their range of simple, straightforward, and free, social media resources which I will of course be using during my presentation (after all, why recreate the wheel?).

Combined with info already out there from the State Library of NSW's learning 2.0 and learning 2.1 for public library staff, and the more recent ANZ 23 mobile things I think I'll probably do okay (now if only I could reign in my stream-of-consciousness.........).

Once I've finished my Powerpoint presentation I'll probably upload it to Slideshare (I'd really like to use Prezi  as it seriously appeals to my visual outlook but I think that may just freak out too many people).

Anyway, GCFlearnfree.org has been a nice discovery this week. :)
