I've certainly learned a lot from completing these various "things". There are a few that stand out to me because I will probably continue to use them on a daily basis. Specifically RSS feeds, Google Docs, Podcasts, and LibraryThing.
As for the technology that I was already familiar with, I learned how one might apply them to a library setting. The number of tools available is startling. I'm sure by the time I finished learning how to use these, dozens of new ones have come along.
This has also been my first blog. Though I probably will never be a big "blogger" it is good to see what it is like having one.
Another great thing about this activity is that I feel more competent when it comes to current web 2.0 technology. Before whenever somebody said something about RSS feeds I had no idea what they were talking about. I feel like I've learned some of the lingo.
Activities similar to 23 things should be revisited by librarians every couple years so we can stay on the edge of web technology.
