Week-3: Web 2.0 tools assist your own personal productivity?

Hello Friends...

This week I will write about how web 2.0 tools assist with your personal productivity. For a beginner it will be hard to try new things, but I have tried new web 2.0 tools this week and have progress positively.

Web 2.0 tools consist of many things such as; Social Networking to RSS. Today, I am going to write how Social Network,  Twitter, Wikis, Blog, and RSS have impacted in our lives.

Social Networking:

Facebook:

As many of you all know in the past years social networking has become part of our lives. Well most of us now using Facebook to socialize on the internet. We spend  most of our time browsing, searching and using navigating through our personal Facebook account. Facebook helps you maintain friendship, partners, or even networking. Facebook have helped me a lot, it keep me updated with all my friends information. If you have not sign-up to Facebook give it a try.

Twitter:

Twitter is like "texting" or "SMS" to many recipients(followers) with only 140 characters. I have used Twitter quite a while and still not used to it. I think Twitter has more advantages if they are a celebrity or a business company. Moreover, Twitter also gives insight of what your friends are thinking, location, or opinion on certain topics

Wikis:

At first I thought Wikis is a form of Wikipedia. However, after I search and tries, everybody can create their own Wikis and shared between their friends. people can save, edit, and delete in real time.

Blog

For my Enterprise 2.0 subject in QUT this is the first time have used Blog and I am still new at this. I think Blog is very useful, it help you to develop your own personal brand in the Internet by giving opinion, information, and insight on certain subjects and allow others to give comments.

RSS

This week I just notice that RSS or Really Simple Syndication makes life easier. This feature helps you to get update information sent it in your email inbox. For Example, previously if we want to see update on news or blog we had to go the site manually. However, because of RSS we simply just have to click on the RSS feed button then it will link to our own web-based newsreaders. So, RSS will save you more time.

That’s all for today. Stay tunes and see you next week!!
