I watched the Common Craft video and checked out Gather, Ning and Library 2.0 Group as instructed. I thought that Gather was very well organized and user friendly. I could understand the interest in using this site to get in the loop on your favorite topics and the current headlines. I explored the Gather Food Essential group and read through some interesting recipes. I did some keyword searching and found a recipe for Sweet Chili Rubbed Pork Loin that I thought looked great. So, I might find myself using this one again... and who knows, maybe I would even like it enough to join the group.
Ning seemed to be mostly for those who wish to create their own social website. Since I am not one of those people, I exited that one pretty quickly.
I though that Library 2.0 Group was interesting and a good way to see what's happening around the world with other libraries. I would probably visit this site again.
Lastly, I explored the Dogster site. If you have a soft spot for dogs, you will love this one. There is a lot of information here, including frequently asked questions, behavior & training tips, health care for dogs, as well as lots of photos. If you were considering a new puppy, this site can help you determine which breed is right for you and your family. I enjoyed this social site, and although I haven't joined it (yet), I'm probably going to re-visit this site again in the future. After visiting these social websites, I can understand why people are using them because for the first time, I actually had some interest in a couple of them myself.
