Online applications and tools

Google docs seems like a very handy tool to have around. Its like an email and word document in one! I always found attaching documents very annoying as you have to save the document, upload the document, wait for it to be uploaded...etc etc...ie very tedious work. Google docs will save time and improve our communication with others as it will be very convenient to do something and immediately have another person to edit it. I look forward to utilising this in the future. I can see myself using it to collaborate with others when planning events in the library.

Zoho- this is even more interesting than Google documents. So many programs on one website. This is even more convenient than Google docs, i think. I spent quite exploring what Zoho had to offer and I still am not aware of all the programs they have to offer. I hope to become more familiar with its use in time.

I have enjoyed these past 12 weeks. I have learnt many new things but unfortunately, my knowledge of them is still only skin-deep. This is because i find that there is insufficient time to become fully familiar with everything but will strive to incorporate everything I have learnt into my work in the future.

You say your new knowledge is only skin deep, but you now have something to build on. No doubt your skills will continue to develop in some of these areas (at need).
