I have found that a Wiki is simply a place to find and share information.
I think this could especially useful for Library staff to share information, post how to manuals & things like that. If you work in a one person branch (lots of country libraries do) I think it's a great idea for those staff to find out things that they may not know about.

Web 2.0 & Library 2.0....Mmmmmm, I really am still unsure what to think about it yet. I can see some benifits of using Library 2.0. It's a great way of reaching out to people through the web. BUT, is it just a phase? How long is it going to be before library staff get sick of blogging?? It requires updating and time (albet, just 15minutes) I don't know, maybe i'm just being very closed minded - rather than see the potential, i'm just seeing the work it could cause. I really think i need to research it more - I am still in two mids about it all.

Thing #13 & #14

Have just been looking at tagging on Del.icio.us and think this is a great idea. Especially if you use multiple PC's!! I think it's a great way of creating accesible bookmarks for you to use & share with friends.

TECHNORATI - I have discovered, is the ultimate place for blog-a-holics to go. It is like a 'Google' for blogs!!

Thing #12

Once I started playing with Rollyo, I realised that I had used sites like this before & didn't like them. I think limiting yourself to just your favorite sites means you don't get to explore other websites that may give you the best information you're after.

This is one of the books I added to my 'LibraryThing' catalogue. As you can see, I can't get myself off the christmas theme - Only 5 weeks & 4 days to go!! This book would be great to have for real in our library collection...I think I'll go put in a request for it now!!
