I've been thrilled to participate in this entire learning process. It is the best training I have received at KCLS by far. It has opened the doors to new portals on the web some of which I had only heard about and others I never had.
It's been easy to get comfortable in the email/instant message world and not want to grow much beyond that. I've been somewhat amazed at my reticence; maybe I just don't want the world to change this much this fast.
Having said that, I admit to being so pleasantly surprised by this entire journey. This is by far the best training I've experienced at KCLS. I feel empowered even knowing a wee bit about places like del.ico.us and Flickr and finding wikis not so scary after all. I think this 27 things format would be a great way to continue to provide training as new technologies emerge. I think it's imperative that all KCLS staff are at least somewhat conversant with everything from MySpace to YouTube to RSS feeds, etc. I don't know why this program was strictly voluntary; I do hope new _xx_ things will be required for all employees.
Lastly, if I could suggest a "28th thing" to learn about it would be how to create our own podcast.
Thank you KCLS for putting this training together...and to the Foundation who is providing a new mp3 player!

Yes, it would be great to learn how to do a podcast. I bet we could learn how to do it independently well enough, but 27 things motivates folks and makes it less intimidating!
