web 2.0 awards
The web 2.0 awards is workable for me. I chose one of the health and medical listings. This listing informed and was easier to use than other choices I have used in the past. I would recommend this listing to others. The other choice was a music listing called Pandora. I liked this because it gave the option of personalizing the music of my taste. You can almost make your own music station. The format was easy on my eyes.
tecnorati
Tecnorati is not streamlined enough for me. The flow just isn't easy on my eyes. It seems too busy to read and digest. Reading everyones blogs on this page is too time consuming for my taste. I will suggest this search tool for customers who blog regularly.

del.icio.us
Del.icio.us can be used on any computer. This is a time saver. Bookmarking previously could only be saved on one computer. Access can now be used on any computer and this is an improvement. It allows to share and simplify. One good point is it organizes favorite links. I suppose it can be used for research but I see it as an easier way to create bookmarks.

My space
My space may be popular with most people but I am not one of them. Personally I have no interest at this time. My spare time is spent differently...Books...Nature. Perhaps in the future I might change my mind on this subject. Time will tell.
If we as a system, want to involve our teens on a continual basis then my answer is yes. We need to connect with our teens. This would keep them interested in our library. It can be scary but surely there can be some sort of guidelines on both sides. It should be workable. Social networking is the way to go for our young adults. We need to jump on the band wagon and keep up.

This exercise was a little challenging for me. It was not the easiest experience. I like readers advisory but this wiki book review was a little different in the sense of inserting and typing without changing other peoples reviews by mistake. It can be a little unsettling but I believe I overcame my anxiety.

Wiki land can change our view daily. The two that I enjoyed and found colorful and factual was Princton and Bull Run. The others were too wordy for my taste. I prefer wiki's that are more
visual and eye appealing with color blocks and information versus the plain print. The format seems easier on my eyes. The fact that anyone can add informaton to wikis can be a little liberal and interesting at the same time.
