I am unsure of the value of social network technology in relation to libraries and feel that other web 2.0 technology has alot more to offer. I see things like facebook and myspace as networks for friends and family. On a final note I have really enjoyed this course and have learn't alot. Web 2.0 does have great potential for libraries, especially blogs, wikis and podcasts.

I think that this application would be really very useful for document creation in any organisation. In the library we could use it at any level, to collaborate on documents regarding procedure, policy, newsletters and many others. What a great way to pull together conference notes, or work on large projects such as Navigators and annual reports work. Plus when we work with other libraries everybody on a project can access everybody work and add or change things when needed. Plus I have had a quick look at Zoho, which seems to be more of a whole office or business online, with a wiki, chat, project managment software, a planner etc. This really would be great for anybody working from home or setting up a new business as they would not have to pay for expensive software to begin with. I just wonder what Microsoft think about all of this??
Take care

I was just looking at the great blog Wee Birdy and I found this amazing pic of Hope and Greenwood in London. It sells sweets and chocolates and it reminds me of a daydream I used to have when I was a little girl. How gorgeous is this shop.
