Mashups

Mashups

What fun - so easy to get creative with these.

Really like the warholizer

Discovered the site Mashupawards.com great collection of different mashups.

Answerboards - I have personally used answer boards when searching for advice on stain removal or car problems. Yahoo 7 answers seems to cover a vast range of quetions from the frivolous to the more serious. I'm not sure if we would have the time in our library to answering questions of such diverse range on a regular basis. It may be good to use as reference training, on an occassional basis.

Podcasts & audio

Podcasts

I quite often listen to podcasts of the news, art programs, music and even a friends gaming groups podcast. It may be an option to attach podcasts of author talks to the library website.

Could be a useful tool for local history - recording peoples life recollections which could be accessed by others.

My local Council and library have recently used "Bang the table" to encourage feedback from the public and encourage a sharing of views on the library and other community matters. It is a great way of allowing people to offer their views (both good and bad ) in an anonymous forum.
