Del.icio.us is a must; after a few of these Learning 2.0 sessions I can't even remember what all these sites were. So I started adding some of the sites to my Del.icio.us account as a way of keeping notes. I had a little problem working out where I put the URL from my blog but I suppose I should have looked at the notes from Sharon Morris first.
Technorati is interesting, a way of getting into all the blogs out there by subject. I have started a blog on my own interest and am hoping to tag it and so get people to access it out there on the internet. Otherwise you just don't have a hope (I seem to have the same name as a Canadian detective T.V. program character - so as far as everyone out there is concerned I'm a blind detective with a dog).
Library Thing was cool but I have some reservations. I thought there were privacy issues involved with telling people what books you were interested in; I think they have laws about this in the U.S.A. I suppose when you get onto Library Thing you don't tag all those books about terrorism and the middle east.

I'd like to see tags and tag clouds in our catalog someday soon - giving people more ways to find what they're looking for.
Library Thing for Libraries is a great reader's advisory tool.
