Social networking
I have never used Facebook, My space etc. and still have very little idea of how they actually work, but I thought in a library environment they could be used to advertise upcoming activities in the libraries eg. author talks, storytelling sessions, special events. These sites would also allow people to make suggestions of activities that they would be interested in seeing or doing at the libraries.

I had a look at some of the Wikis that were listed, and I have to admit I found most of them really confusing. I did like the Book lovers Wiki - it was interesting to read the different book reviews.
In a library environment I think a closed model Wiki could be used to list new items that are available to borrow, and list events that are coming up at different branches of the libraries.

I'm continuing on to the second part of Licence2test drive which is Online Photo Sharing where we have to find a photo we like the look of on Flickr and put it in our blog.

I loved this one, I'm a bit of a sook for anything to do with animals. I just typed 'animals' into the search on Flickr and had a look through them all until this of the hand and the dog paw caught my eye.
