Podcasting? I Know What it is ...

June 1st is the official start of the hurricane season and the last two weeks of culminating the end of the school year. The word that comes to mind as I reflect is: exhaustion.
I was juggling around too much throughout the week!

Today, I glimpsed at an interview on the show, THE BIG IDEA. It featured Mr. Bill Gates. He was informative in getting consumers up-to-date with all the technological gadgets/equipments that will be a part of the future. All the systems that he spoke about is already here, .. just being tested in his Microsoft techno-lab. T

The age of technology is on a consistent whirlwind. Kuhn's ... Paradigm shift?
Librarians must constantly be informed because the computer age is going to switch a lot around in the now-future.

I was excited that I understood some of the techno terms that he was speaking of ... podcasts, blogging, wikis, etc. Surprisenly, Gates focused in on a school's library to pinpoint what students are doing differently with computers in their curriculum .
