Social Bookmarking

I can see how the del.icou.os account could be usful in the workplace for compiling research done for easy access and being able to share with others in the same field. Definitely good to know about and another fact finding machine other that google. May be too confusing for the person at home who is just looking up info on a subject. Google would be better for that which is all that I need.

Wiki-Wiki

I can see how this could be helpful for the librarians to connect for ideas from all areas of Sno-Isle on one easy to use web-site. Events coordination would go a lot more smoothly. I like the idea of book reviews also. Even the site for information on a variety of subjects that can be edited by all librarians could come in handy.
Not something I would use in my job,but can see the advantages for planning.

You Tube, Hula and Fancast

Wow! I'd heard of YouTube of course ,which my kids use for fun and sometimes my displeasure at their choices. You can find pretty much anything you want and plenty you don't want too. My favorite video on funny cats is a must see. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUNmLuNdiL8
Hula- I can take or leave. Too much advertisement. But Fancast is fantastic! Great way to review shows and movies to see what's out there. Can also easily catch something I missed.
I may be spending a lot more time on the computer now!

Facebook

I now have an account in facebook but am not really comfortable with it. Don't think it's something that I'll be using but at least I made the attempt. Whewww!
