Number 18

i created a Google Doc account and a document. That is a handy tool to write one document and save it in word or publish it or both.

web 2.0

I read a couple of perspectives on the futures of libraries. Libraries should be very central to each community, able to answer all community questions. They could come to the library for information about the schools in the area and sources of help for seniors. One should be able to do all the research they need in the library on the computer.

wikis

I particularly liked the book lovers wikis created by Princeton Univ.
I think it is a great idea for every library to create their own wikis
and start a community blog.

Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati

It is a great site if you were looking for an answer to a specific question. I was reading some of the blogs and learned that some people write in computerese which I couldn't understand. Is there going to be a whole new languare created from blogging?

del.icio.us

The funny thing about this site is the tuturiol would not come up, but I enjoyed exploring the other libraries. I used to be able to get into the libraries in France from "sailor" about 15 years ago. Even though it was in french it was interesting.

rollyo

Went into the rollyo site and did a roll about travel. This site did not interest me.

LibraryThing

I sign in for LibraryThing and submited some of my recent readaing items. When I have more time I want to look at that site closer.
