Google Labs
I tried "Google Suggest" pretty cool. It would really come in handy if you couldn't remember the name of the website because the moment you start typing it is offering up suggestions of what it is you could be looking for. If you see what you want you just have to click on it. this is definitely the lazy way which puts it up on my number 1 favorite.

Google Spreadsheet
Google was way easier for me and I love it. whew that was a close one. check it out http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p2W5_gzrYvuWYdKq2pWWTdg
Zoho
this is a link to my zoho spreadsheet http://sheet.zoho.com/public.do?docurl=oNg955zQJSOq8igBVb78Dw%3D%3D&name=8v%2F%2FNz%2BWTUo%3D . I created it for game on. It was easy enough for even me to figure out but it has a serious delay and when you change font or size you have to make changes and then get out of the box to SEE the changes. that made me kinda a crazy. also it doesn't keep the spaces i wanted the title to be spreadout and it would not keep the spacing. grrrrrr.

library 2.0
i actually read all of these but my favorites were "Away from Icebergs" and "To a temporary place in time". Which is funny because they are almost polar opposites. I agree with Iceberg saying about how its really hard for some us to let go of things that do not go out that much and just in case someone asks for this we better keep it. there are so many ways to get information out there. do i think we should only hold new books? no but our space in the library is seriously limited and i think we need to save room for what circ's or gets used. I "liked what place in time" had to say because it shows how she predicts the library to come full circle as "knowledge spa". That sounds great to me.
rollyo vs google
i definitely like the google one better. in rollyo it seemed super slow it would only allow 1 search and freeze. i tried the same searches in google and was MUCH happier. i could be that i just was glad to see a familiar layout. i could seem how it would be beneficial. i liked that you i could search for one book in 3 systems simultaneously ( i created a google search with renton, spl and kcls. it was great.

best blogs ever
i would like to say that i have officially made it on the best blogs ever page....hate the game not the player.
wikis
had absolutely no idea that anyone could contribute/edit this stuff. i took wikipedia like an encyclopedia everything to be true and factual/boring. i was exploring one the library wikis. i liked the one about the chicago ala 2005 and how you never NEVER ask for ketchup on your hotdog in chicago. i made me pretty hungry cause my favorite things on hotdogs is mustard, sauerkraut and onions...yuummmm. anyway wikis are cool. its kind of like a community blog but there is also a huge potential for someone posting something wrong or horrible.
librarything
...is awesome. i love it! i have already started adding things to my library. definitely one of my favs so far. one of my co-workers was watching me browse and fell in love with it too. have a great day!

technorati
technorati is pretty cool. i clicked on it real quick and clicked on virginia tech and read the shooter's play. which after reading that shows how truly whack this guy is. This is the link http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2007/0417071vtech1.html
del.icio.us
I am not sure what to make of this. I signed up for delicious way back when i first signed in for a flickr account. i had noticed the del.icio.us sign down on the bottom and clicked away. Not sure really how to use it or how it serves a purpose. but after reading some of the peoples comments, i guess its really popular. so i guess its great. just not for me.
friends
well thank god for instructions i had tried doing this on my own and has inviting people to join my space rather than adding them as my friend. and after struggling with this for a while i went back to the kcls27things blog and read the directions. Thank you, thank you very much. I almost lost a dozen brain cells on that one.
my space
yes finally something fun and useful! This has been my favorite one yet. I have a work my space and a personal my space. The personal one i use to keep in touch with my family and friends that i don't normally get to see or talk to you. It is great! http://www.myspace.com/170434467 that's me
