Thing 20 YouTube

I knew what YouTube was from my kids showing various videos they found entertaining. I like the "Betty Glover Library Workout Tape Ad" one, always fun to laugh at ourselves. I can see YouTube being useful for library work, perhaps as an instructional tool, or a way to show kids having fun at programs.

Thing 19 Web 2.0 Awards

I took a quick look around, and then zeroed in on the Retail winners. Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/index.php)is great, all kinds of listings for unique and quirky items, most look to be handmade. I don't know that this one would be useful in a library setting, but it's fun to look through to find the perfect gift for that quirky person in your life.

Thing 18 Web-based Apps

I can see how Zoho could be very useful for anyone who travels for their job or who works at an office and at home, easy to keep everything together. The Writer toolbar is cool, and I really like the templates.

Thing 17 - PBWiki

This one took me a while, but I finally added my blog to the list and posted a couple of favorites in Animals and Music. I don't see much use for this personally, but it others might find it helpful.
