Confused?
You bet. But I'm enjoying exploring and have decided to quit trying to use all the rules I tell kids about social networks. I'm simplifying now and can fix things later. Didn't I read something like that somewhere here today? Lisa? Beth? Where are you! Also pleased that I came along at the right time to jump on Library Youth & Teen Services 2.0

Good to see you on board. Talking about boards, the reason I haven't been able to welcome you until now is that I have been unable to use my computer while our floorboards get polished and I've really missed our Ning Library 20 network. Got a bit of catching up to do. Next thing I need is to get a laptop with wireless access so I won't have that problem again. Love the Sydney outline on your page. Enjoy Ning!
I work in a school library too, and wonder about the trend of writing for the "boys read" crusade. It's an intersting trend to watch, living in a house full of males as well. One, at least gets cross at the deliberate "writing for boy", but all read avidly on the internet!!
So, boys read. But do Manly boys read?
