Thought Break! Videos on Thinking and Ideas

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 Posted in Articles, For Libraries, Technology and Resources | Comments Off on Thought Break! Videos on Thinking and Ideas


I was finally catching up with some of my online reading today, and ran across some online viewing I thought worth sharing. The first is a video called "We Think." It’s catchy and easy to watch and I particularly liked the bit where it asks: "How do we make a living when everyone is freely sharing their ideas?"; and responds: "In the past you were what you owned … now you are what you share?"

That sentiment goes along with this second video, which is basically about sharing and communities, though the term it uses is "tribes."

Both ideas have an application in libraries, I think, and are worth the watch (less then 25 minutes for the two of them).
