Well, here I am just completing my last "Thing". I have learned a lot-- tried some totally new "things" and got better at some more familiar things. I think that the 23 Things project was fun, interesting and useful, both personally and professionally.
I now will be more inspired to try new technology, and to continue in my own Life-long learning experience. I like the way this exercise was divided into weekly goals and the way we were encouraged to Blog (and reflect) on what we had tried, discovered and learned. I also liked being able to read others experiences. I liked that the deadlines had some wiggle room, so that those of us who were on AL for a week or so could still complete all the exercises and not get terribly behind while we were away. I liked being able to do them on project time at work as well as from home if desired. Offering the 23 Things project to everyone on staff--Associates and Librarians-- gave us all common topics of discussion, and enhanced the teamwork feeling and life-long learning goal for all involved.
I would definitely participate in a similar exercise in the future. I have gained many new insights and had fun as I explored each week's topics. The organizers put together a useful and timely endeavor for PBCLS staff.
