Rollyo
Search rolls are an amazing creation. I found it so interesting and easy to use, especially when you want to group a list of things you are interested in into one easy site for future reference.
Creating a search roll was easy, it was the time you spent deciding what sites you wanted to keep that was the problem without making your list too long.

Library Thing
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/grannysmithnz
Library Thing is such an easy way to list all those books you thing you would like to read or look into at a later date.
Amazon is such a huge site and in most cases their descriptions are enough for you to know whether you want to look further into the book or not.
Such a difference from looking up a title and having to wait until it arrives to see whether you really do want to read it or not.
Brilliant!!!!

Learning 2.0 Sandbox wiki
Wowwee, what a fabulous site this Sandbox wiki is.
Even for - 'what to have for dinner tonight' - just look in the Favourite recipes to get hints on new ideas.
Just look in the 'favourite' anything and the next thing you know an enjoyable hour has gone by with no stress or hassles - the site is so easy to use.
And the thought of others sharing their 'Favourites' online from anywhere in the world and you being able to add to that list is quite remarkable.
A big eye opener for my simplistic thoughts about what is out there!

Learning about wikis
A great site for anyone who wishes to share ideas on a special subject.
Like another blogger suggested - a one-stop-shop created for people who have a special subject they want to share their ideas on and get others to join them.
An ongoing site with new and updated information being added by anyone at any time just by editing, creating new links and saving this info.
A very time consuming but enjoyable, interesting and fun site to be involved in.

Perspectives on Web 2.0, Library 2.0
In my opinion, all of the perspectives from the OCLS Next Space Newsletter point towards the library on-line sites (Web sites) - rather than the library buildings themselves being the focus point of the majority of its users.
Librarians of the future will need to be trained tour guides. Whether they are answering questions on line or on the floor.
Whichever chair they are sitting in - they will be guiding the future users through all the aspects of finding the information they want.
There will be a need for the print collection but how much and in what format will be the questions on Acquisitions and Collection Management Librarians' minds.
