Final Thoughts

The biggest obstacle was of course time in completing the 23 things. It was well worth it though.

Mashups

I liked http://www.godo.com.au/.

Brings all sorts of info into the one place instead of having to go here and there for the info.

Anyone for surfing lessons??

Podcast directories

The one I used was http://www.podcastalley.com/. Pefect for searching what you are interested in.

Here's one for the witches out there....

Web 2.0 tool

I used Stumble. A quick way of searching webpages and rating them on subjects you like.

Google Docs

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UYIdHHjeoPq_R8PqB2xfyVw4ShGx17Q0undcUmhFqA0/edit#

Excellent if you don't have word on your computer. Good way to share once again

UoN Wiki

I tried accessing this wiki and I could not log in. Very frustrating.

Wikis

Wikis are a great and easy way for all people to add and communicate information on any subject. Editing is so easy too. I really liked the Book lovers wiki that allows people to share their reviews of books read...fantastic.

Library 2.0

Library 2.0 is a great way for the patron to become more involved with the library webpages. RSS feeds are great for news updates, blogs on library webpages allows patrons to communicate with the library and themselves. Even having academic adding their own tags to records can no doubt help the calatogue be searched more easily as well.

Youtube stuff

Youtube is great for documentaries that don't appear on TV and a lot of independent news that simply is not shown in our filtered, edited news. It doesn't have a save option on screen you have to use other methods like http://www.savevid.com/.
