CPL 2.0 LibraryThing

I found the site quite easy to navigate, however I don't believe I will use it. I don't keep track of the books I've read--although sometimes I wish I had. Another similar site is Goodreads, which will allow you to keep a record of more titles. I thought LibraryThing was user friendly and easy to navigate and I was able to find all of the titles I searched for. I didn't find the comments and reviews particularily useful, although it is nice to get a general idea of readers ratings.

CPL 2.0 Online Productivity Tools

I toured Google Docs and uploaded information from a file I am currently working on to create a booklist. Now if I want to add to the file I can do so from home.

Will these online tools replace MS Office, etc? I think they just might. Especially as they are free, more and more people will use them. And the ability to access from any computer is a wonderful bonus. But will Google maintain these in the future, and will they remain free? Maybe a bit of a gamble.

CPL2.0 Flickr and YouTube

I really like both Flickr and YouTube. I have used YouTube before to find how-to videos. Viewing an instructional video is so helpful when you are trying to learn or teach something . For example I viewed a couple of videos to learn how to make pinch pleated curtains.

Flickr looks like it would be good for storing and sharing your photographs. I have not used it yet but plan to in the future.
