- Blogging (a blog facilitates the quick and easy publication of information and - in fact - the commenting feature allows for patron interaction - very Web2.0-y) [Sharon's addition - use of term Web2.0-y ... take that, O'Reilly!]
- Flickr (online photo sharing/storage - get those graphics quickly incorporated into your blogs and websites)
- Google maps - create an interactive map to your library locations
- del.icio.us - social bookmarking to help organize your online resources via subject - share among your fellow librarians [Sharon's addition: Furl is an option for this, too, and no doubt, there are many more]
- Wikis - build a wiki to aloow staff to jointly create content
- Try MySpace or Facebook - get social!
