With different colleges, universities, corporations, and libraries experimenting with technology, the number of tutorials are growing quickly. Gone are the days of sitting down with someone and explaining how to use a wiki or flickr...it's so much easier to just send a link to a video or tutorial. Ok, that's not completely true. Emerging technologies get used primarily as a result of word of mouth discussions and demonstrations. But, the numerous online resources certainly make it easier to those who are interested to develop their competence. The Learn More series tackles tools from a librarian perspective. Included: avatars, flickr, twitter, wikis, librarything, youtube, and more.
