Thing # 22
eBooks is not something I browse much. I mostly read before going to sleep and prefer to have a book in hand. Someday maybe I'll give it a try. Possibly starting with an educational eBook - Foreign Language Learning collection? - might ease into usage of the product.

Try YouTube video with Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman singing Time to Say Goodbye in Tuscany.

Thing # 19
The blog about Gmail convinced me to reconsider the email provider I use - Outlook at home and Groupwise at work.
Thing # 18
The SEO short list was helpful. I like the comparisons of the top favorites. For maps, Yahoo! Maps is still one of my favorites.
Thing # 17
One of the best features is that it seems shared documents would be easier to create compared to email of document as attachment. The advantage to libraries is the speed and ease of communication.
Thing # 15
Book reviews are still one of my favorite things to read. Reader's advisory is a logical wiki application for a library to provide for those who cannot attend a book club.

Highlights the challenges, as well as the opportunities, librarians face in making the library a useful environment to customers whether service is provided onsite or online.
Thing # 9
For the couple news feeds I searched (traveling in London and traveling in Paris) I liked Topix.net better than Syndic8.com and Technorati.
Thing # 7
Lesson learned from Learn & Play. Blog address. I now have a better understanding as to how URL addresses become way too long. I'll watch out for this next time around!
