Web-Based Productivity

I love Thing #18. Being a Gmail fan I encountered their web doc and spreadsheets a few years ago and have been using them ever sence. It is so convenient to be able to send docs to people without making sure they have the some programs.

Wikis

I like the compilation of unique ideas and perspective that make up the information on wikis, as the provide a type of information that is not found in books. Out of the library wikis provided I like dthe book review wiki best.

Web 2.0/Library 2.0

What a difficult topic, we want technological with a human touch. The difficulty being in finding the balance. The only thing I could really say is that I think in the future the size of a library will not be determined by the buildings size, but by the size of the electronic collection you have. As far a balance, I'm glad we are not on the leading edge nor are we trailing the pack. You can see the difficulties that others have faces so as not to face them yourself; while still providing the tech that customers want.
