I have really enjoyed this challenge. The tasks have allowed me to explore blogging, wikis, feeds, and many other applications and technologies that I have wanted to become familiar with for some time now. I think the thing I am most impressed by is how easy it is to update online information. Also impressive is the "real time" aspect of Web 2.0; with the use of feeds, you have access to the most recent info from online resources. But what is most fun, I think, are the possibilities of collaboration. Shared applications of all types can be used by people from physical locations very distant from one another.
Although not every new bell or whistle out there will be appropriate or useful to libraries, there are some that will be. And, used properly, they will enhance the library experience for both patrons and library personnel.
