Comments on: Twopointopians http://jasongriffey.net/wp/2007/09/03/twopointopians/ reflections of the present, dreams of the future Thu, 05 Mar 2015 03:39:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.2 By: Jason Griffey http://jasongriffey.net/wp/2007/09/03/twopointopians/#comment-1357 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 03:15:07 +0000 http://www.jasongriffey.net/wp/2007/09/03/twopointopians/#comment-1357 I don't think that anyone is suggesting that every library, everywhere, needs everything 2.0. Not every library needs a wiki, in the same way that not every library needs a Serials Librarian…it depends on need. But it _always_ depends on need…that doesn't seem much of an argument to me. If AL and others are really saying that the twopointopians are claiming everyone needs everything _right now_, that seems just a Straw Man.

The 2.0-ians, by contrast are employed in libraries, are very public about the things they do in libraries and what works and doesn’t work. They also try, most of the time, to value some sort of harmony (not just with each other, but with EVERYONE) and something you need to do to work with the public and other people.

I may be conflict-averse more than most people, but I find this sort of nastiness not a really good path to actually getting things done, changing hearts and minds or learning anything. If I have a limited amount of time in my life to get things done, I’m not going to work on a point by point rebuttal of someone who doesn’t even necessarily believe what they’re saying.

One take away though is that we’re not measuring impacts of a lot of these 2.0 technologies and I think if we’re going to move to the next level we have to start measuring the same way we count people who come in the door, or email reference questions. This means more change in the higher level organizations who collect and analyze this date. So, let’s go.

The typical reply is the “slow library movement” which means providing these types of technologies where they are actually needed instead of just throwing stuff up there that doesn’t get used.
