To me, it's exactly what a "2.0" learning space should have -- something for every sort of research/learning need. Looking forward to seeing you too!!! @Mary – I was so impressed with the flexible seating and spaces for group and individual work. To me, it’s exactly what a “2.0″ learning space should have — something for every sort of research/learning need.

Looking forward to seeing you too!!!

I also wanted to include Facebook pages from the Boston metro area since that's where I was giving the talk. :) @Talking Books... - Perfection was one of those games that drove me crazy as a child. I still remember the sound of the timer. People who were good at that game probably ended up on bomb squads and other high-pressure jobs that involve tight time constraints and ticking. ;) Thanks also for the tip on the webinar. If you go, please do blog it b/c I'll be away on vacation that day. @Megan – it’s a nice Facebook page and contains a lot of the most important things for students.

Accessibility is definitely something we need to be thinking about in this world of library 2.0 and web 2.0. I posted the details about it on my blog earlier this morning. Cheers!

Looks like a great presentation. And wow, I had forgotten all about the game of "perfection" - that thing used to drive me up a wall! :) Thanks for sharing the slides.

I hope I get to see you give this in person someday, because it looks like a great talk.
