Jing Yeah!

I have never before used or heard of Jing, but I am pretty stoked that we got to do a "thing" on it. It is a very fascinating and super versatile tool. In libraries it could make the use of our new technologies much easier! Imagine how much simpler it would be to load a video teaching students how to search for articles online instead of having a Reference Librarian sit for an extended amount of time trying to explain the same concepts. Incredible! This kind of technology could be applied to many educational tools.

Plus, Jing is also very useful for those of us who would like to demonstrate important life lessons such as "Red shirts are expendable". Why just SAY it, when you can show it?



The moral of the story? I <3 Jing. Also, don't wear a red shirt if you ever find yourself in a star trek type situation. ESPECIALLY if Kirk is your captain.
