What's my purpose?

In other words, what would I like to get out of learning these "13 Things"?

I can see professional and personal uses for what we'll be learning in this course. For work, maybe I can use these tools to connect with current dental & dental hygiene students at UMKC. For example, a blog could be used as a "breaking news" area to alert students to new resources or services, and to redirect them to the location of those services (such as our web site or LibGuide pages). Personally, I can use a blog to let interested family members know of my latest discoveries in my family tree research, and it could also serve as a central point for updates on next summer's family reunion.

These are just some brief ideas on what i would like to do with the information learned through this course. I'm sure that other possibilities will take shape as I get more comfortable with each new feature.
