WIKI'S

Had already reported on this (see earlier reference to finding something interesting).
Anyway checked out SJCPL subject guides, Book Lovers wiki, and Library Success and found all to be very interesting and would prove quite useful.

Probably the main downside of wiki's would be the lack of control, if you set one up it is open to additions and editing from other people. Some people would find this a good thing.

Libraries can use these, i.e. Princeton public library book lovers. Can be used for discussion groups, book lists, subject guides, etc.

web 2.0 and library 2.0 further...

the state library and other libraries can make use of these tools so that they can reach more people and provide access to the library and its services in different formats.

library 2.0 and web 2.0

invaluable to help show and explain new technologies.
Helps us to keep abreast of changes and how we can integrate them into our work and home life.

feeds

Looked at these, found technorati easy to use, as well as Google Blog search tool.
Found topix quite useful, seeing it is Australian.
Also looked at EBSCO ANZ Reference Centre to find magazine articles.

I have done it! Bloglines

new technology

I think Flickr is terrific technology and quite accessible for all.

MAPR, FLICKR COLOUR PICKR, & MONTAGR

these are all very interesting sites.

the end of the road

I found 2.0 to be quite informative, some things made sense to me and seemed useful, others, not so. But a good way to learn all about what's new.

hey! it works!


thanks for your help Lynette!

this is good also, you can publish your own manuscript, then try to sell it as well as connecting with other writers.

had a look at zoho

this was not a bad site, makes it easier to share documents with others.

now this is a bit more interesting!

had a look at the booklovers and library success Wiki's, these are very good resources and would prove most useful.

Hmmm dont really get it??

had a look at rollyo and del.icio.us but didnt really get it. I am not a computer junkie and only using it sparingly so these things arent much use to me.
