Sandbox

Added a comment under favorite restaurants and then decided to move it to where other comments were, only to discover that comments can't be deleted by your casual contributor!

Wikis

Perfect for sharing great ideas, whether it be from other libraries with innovative ideas or patrons with suggestions. Great way to find out info on just about anything!

Zoho

Made a little booklet in Zoho Writer from one of the many templates. I do see the value in having web based programs which eliminate version issues when sharing, etc. From the Web 2.0 awards list, I made a Twitter account ....I'm feeling inundated with usernames and passwords at this point in my life!

P.S. Note previous post!

Delicious

So now I can keep all my bookmarks in one place and access them from one website, great!
Best of all, can easily get to new sites that interest me others have tagged.

On Bob's acct., I especially liked "Methods for Staying Current and Dealing with Information Overload", by Sarah Houghton-Jan (Librarian in Black)

Bring 'em on !!!!!?!

RSS

Okay, I now have a list of feeds I am following. Nice to be able to add or delete as interests change and have it all in one place. So many choices ...

Seven and a half things

It seems to me the easiest thing to do is set the next goal ... Oh, I want to do this ... I want to have that ... I want to go there ... The hard part is figuring out how and being patient enough to stick with it.

Keeping up with changing technologies can be a challenge. Just when I've figured out the steps, they've changed the rules ! Keeps us young, I suppose.
It's all soooo cool though!
