LibraryThing

I believe that I had joined a similiar service with Facebook before. I enjoyed seeing what other people had to say about the book that I was reading, and I enjoyed seeing what my friends were reading. Again, I tend to get lazy about entering all the information in that I'm supposed to....good intentions though!

Online Mapping and GIS

Hmmmm....I'm trying hard to think of a way I might use this, and can't think of anything at the moment. It might be useful to give out of town guests some ideas of hotels and restaurants to stay in...I'm sure that I'll think of more as time goes by.

Widgets

I think the idea of Widgets is cool. I have already thought of embedding a Meebo chat window into my subject page, and after doing my sabbatical project, I'd like to create a LibGuide that contains a section of widgets specifically for identifying alternate words or vocabulary to query databases with.

Diigo

I think this is a really neat idea, but one that I wonder if I would spend the time to use well. If I did, I would probably find it useful, but I might lack the self discipline to tag the sites properly and thoroughly... I think it would be really useful if a group were working together on a project and wanted to share web resources...that would be really cool, especially if one used the highlighting and comment feature....

Twitter

Twitter....hmmmm...it seems to be similiar to RSS feeds, which, in theory, I like...in practice, I find that I could waste a lot of time reading about things that I probably should do, like eating more spinach, or exercising more, but almost never do...I think this would be great for people with a lot of time on their hands....

Facebook

I Love Facebook! I've been on for a few years now, and find it an awesome way of keeping up with friends and family, that I normally wouldn't find the time to keep up with. I enjoy viewing people's pictures, and having a "peek" into their lives.....

Flickr

I think Flickr is an awesome idea. I have a number of relatives that won't use Facebook, so I can't share my pictures with them. They'd be happy to see them on a site like Flickr though.
