Keeping up with LITA
LITA, the Library and Information Technology Association, publishes their own blog with developments from the field. Couldn't hurt to check there every once in a while, right?
Web 2.0 Challenge
Want to be savvy? Challenge yourself to learn all the latest in Web 2.0. Web 2.0 basically consists of the social and interative features you can now use on the Web and that our patrons seem to adore.
Several library sites have set up their own Web 2.0 learning challenge (calling it Learning 2.0, 23 things, or whatever) to inspire everyone in the library world to get up to speed with the latest tools on the Web. And it is actually fun.
I am a big fan of Infopeople, who give a lot of workshops and also set up their own 23 things learning challenge. Although the formal challenge has ended, you can still go through each step to learn something new. And now there are more than 23 things, so you can learn even more. Check it out!

Educause 2008
Educause has posted an ebook to its site, The Tower and the Cloud, which looks at how technology developments are impacting academia.
Cloud computing is another name for Internet-based tech development.
