THING 12. SOCIAL MEDIA SITES

Social media sites are tailor-made for news junkies who have a lot of time on their hands. For me, it's a time waster I don't need. Admittedly, there's an awful lot of interesting news out there. Some of it I wouldn't have seen if it weren't for the 23 things. I looked at Digg, Reddit, Newsvine, and Mixx. I liked Newsvine the best. But the bottom line is I don't have the time or enthusiasm to check social media sites regularly. Do libraries use these? RCL doesn't.
