Delicious- 2.0
Delicious-I have used Delicious to find websites that we used to have on our Best Website page. I have gone to sites such as Altapedia and the CIA Factbook for country information and I have also used some of the sites for Citizenship information. I actually had even added a site when we first switched to Delicious-the Hennepin Public Libray site. I looked up the Hennepin Library today on the main site and stopped counting after 25 for the entries for it. I think this is one of the main problems with Delicious-there doesn't seem to be anybody moderating it and so websites are being listed over and over again-which could make looking for something very cumbersome.

2.0 is Chill
I have already used some of the resources that we will be trying during the next few months for CPL 2.0. I kept in contact with my son when he was in Switzerland using Facebook and I signed up for YouTube because he posted some videos on there. I have also used LibraryThing to keep track of books. I hope to learn some more in-depth information about each of these products and learn some of the new ones that I have never tried before such as Twitter, I guess it would be good to relate programs and information about the library to our customers.
