the end, so sad.

My favorites were: Flickr, YouTube, and eaudiobooks. I can see myself using these for fun and on the job.

I enjoyed just learning about all the things. I know I won't use most of them, but when someone comes up and mentions RSS , blogs, or Technorati I'll know what the heck they are talking about. A good learning experience!

I would choose to participate again in something like this. It was a fun way to learn new things out there in the techie world. My office-mates all chatted about a lot of the things and we all shared our ideas even before we entered them into our blogs!

Thank you for this!!!!!

eaudiobooks

I browsed the NetLibrary page and was impressed. I knew there was a lot to choose from, but there is even more now than the last time I checked. I love the idea of downloading a book. For me, I wouldn't have the opportunity to use it very often and I of course also still love the idea of curling up with a book in hand.
The browse feature is wonderful as well as seeing what is new. 158 Young Adult Fiction titles. That is great!!!
I tease the kids when I show them the books on CD and/or explain about the eaudiobooks that they are great to listen to while on a car ride or while cleaning your room!!! Not very funny, I know.

podcast

I like the idea of youtube over a podcast. After all the fun on YouTube, podcasts seem to be a sort of let down. :(
I compared Podcast.net and Podcastalley and I prefered Podcastalley. I did the same search on both - teen authors, and I liked the presentation of the results on Podcastalley. I also thought the main page was more engaging and visually exciting.

YouTube

I have always found Youtube fun. I've seen movie trailers, old commercials, new commercials, and even a funny Harry Potter skit that had everyone in the office laughing!!http://youtube.com/watch?v=Tx1XIm6q4r4


I can see having fun with this with respect to advertising for the library. I could make a video for teens about the "Totally Tubeular Teen Librarian". Who knows?????

Web 2.0 Awards

First of all, it was great to have a list like this to browse through. For someone like me who doesn't necessarily surf the web, having just the "top picks" to look at is great. One site I liked was http://www.etsy.com/ It focuses on buying and selling only handmade items, which is a wonderful focus to the site.



I also thought http://www.pandora.com/ is a really cool site. How fun to just play and get suggestions of new songs. I can see my husband (the music freak) getting adicted to this. That is if he hasn't already!!

Zoho

Well I played with Zoho a bit and the different features it has. I can see how it would be great to be able to access your work from any computer and not just the one at your desk.

PBWiki

That was pretty neat. It was fun reading everyone's comments and it wasn't too overwhelming. If there were pages and pages of comments, that would be too much for me. The formatting was a bit off and that made certain sections more difficult to follow. I added comments in fave vacation spot and fave TV show.
