23 things

Well that's the end of it. I may not have gotten everything right but it was interesting to hear about some of this stuff. A certain amount of it I had heard of before but some of it was completely new. I wouldn't want this to be an ongoing thing although I realize that there will be new stuff always on the horizon to be aware of.

Thanks.

MOLDI

MOLDI could be useful but I didn't find any titles that interested me.

Podcasts

Podcastalley.com was interesting. I just picked a podcast:

Podcasts could be useful in some ways.

YouTube

I like YouTube. You can find things there that you thought you would never see again. I found a trailer for General Cinema Corporation from the 70's and I loved it. Library customers could find similar items. I tried to embed it a number of times but was unable. Something is different with the embed and it won't copy and paste the entire line, which is a shame. I'll provide a link below.

CML's 2.0 tools

I took a look at Stumble Upon from the Tool Box and signed up for it. It seems like a pretty interesting site. I might use it some in the future to find interesting web sites and see what interests some other people.

Web 2.0 Awards

I went to Last FM under music and looked around. It was interesting that you could meet different people with the same music interests and find out about music you might like that you hadn't heard of before. Could be used as a tool in the library for helping customers find out about other music they might enjoy and connect with other people, too.

google docs

I wouldn't use something like this; I just prefer to use what I have at home on my computer. Perhaps customers would want to use it so that they don't have to carry around a disc wherever they go that they want to work on it.
