WEB CONFERENCE - NOT VIEWABLE REMOTELY, ONLY VIEWABLE AT MLS CHICAGO OFFICE

TOPIC: SLA Click U: Web 2.0 Software and the Embeddable Web.

The Course
Take a look at the other side of Web 2.0: the new online Web services tools that make sharing, embedding, and collaborating easier online. Explore ways that Web-based software can be used within organizations to work together on projects and documents. See how to embed presentations, images, spreadsheets, lists, videos, RSS feeds, documents, and other information from one site into another. Investigate tracking options, comment capabilities, and remote hosting. See how other Web-based tools can be used to edit images, manage projects, create flowcharts, build databases, and convert files, all without needing to download and install software.

Targeted Learners This seminar targets librarians, information professionals, managers, and other frequent Web users. Access to the Web with a browser that supports Flash, Javascript, and Java applications is helpful (in other words, you can view a YouTube video). Some of these tools will not work for those behind very restrictive firewalls with Flash and Javascript disabled.

Critial Learning Questions
*What range of Web-based software is available?
*How does such software track multiple versions?
*What shared editing capabilities are available?
*What special functions can be achieved using this software?
