Item #21: Alternative Blogging

I think that people must have a lot of time on their hands to be able to use the twitter or tumblr sites. I certainly don't have time to stop and update a website with every little thing that I'm doing throughout the day; nor do I think that anyone would really care. However, there could be applications for this kind of updating within a branch, department or even throughout the library system. We would always know where people were, or where they are going if we were trying to find someone, as long as everyone remembered to take the time to update. We could also use it to instantly open up reference question assistance to other staff onsite or offsite, but only if someone were monitoring it.
