Personally, the Podcasts didn't interest me that much. They were okay, but not something I would search for or use. I don't know if they would be useful in a library situation either. I'm sure there would be people out there in library land who could think up a use for them - unfortunately, that person is just not me.

Having looked through YouTube, I have chosen to add John Stamos being interviewed by Kerri-Ann whilst on his recent trip to Australia. This just cracks me up - he is so odd in this interview. I had heard about this interview, but wasn't home when it was on. I was very excited to see that it was on YouTube. Here it is -

Zoho Writer is AWESOME!!! I have been recently thinking about purchasing Microsoft Office - but am now re-thinking that. I never realised something like this existed. I never thought I could go onto the internet to type up documents. And it even has an offline mode, so I don't even need to be connected to the internet to use it! I think Zoho Writer is great.

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.
