Hi – thanks for checking out my blog!
The name of this blog was inspired by a conversation I had on Twitter in which someone called me an ‘octopus’ for multitasking. The name has kinda stuck, but I think it is an interesting persona to have. I have wide-ranging interests and am involved with a number of different projects at the moment.
This is a personal blog about my professional learning in the information profession. At the moment, it will feature my reflections on doing the ANZ 23 Mobile Things course which I am organizing (along with Kate Freedman). You can read a bit more about me in my extended introduction on the ANZ 23 Mobile Things blog: “All About Abigail.”
It will also feature posts on my interests which include (in no particular order):
- social media
- new professionals
- information technology
- collaboration
- online learning
- curation
I look forward to hanging out with you!
Abigail Tarbotton (nee Willemse).
