Twitter

I find Twitter as a growing online phenomenon to be largely not useful. Though one possible use may be for organizations or bands to post event's news and shows. I think facebook and myspace cover most of the areas that Twitter would be advantageous to use.

LibraryThing

My favorite part of LibraryThing is the recommend function.
I found it quite accurate at suggesting books I may be interested in.

Online Productivity Tools

I could definitely see myself using these online tools more often rather than using traditional methods. The biggest advantage would probably be that the software is completely free. The software is also accessible through any computer connected to the Internet and is syncable with allot of pre-existing programs.

Flikr & YouTube

I'd say that both these sites offer media content that is useful for educational and entertainment purposes. Even though you may not find all search hits being of quality to you as an individual, the vast amount of files on either site bring allot of choice.

RSS

I was successful at setting up my RSS feed.
Yes, it made information gathering a bit easier. Instead of trying to track down blogs I had read before that I still wanted to follow, I received real time updates from my feed.

Google Universe

Google Maps allows you to view maps of almost any street in the world with great detail.
What I liked about this application is the ability to plan trips and recieve directions as a function.
One aspect I didn't like about this application was that the street view function wasn't completely accurate. I found that the address it listed for my house wasn't the right one.

Facebook

Though there are allot of time wasting applications on facebook, I ultimately find it quite useful.
As a musician I find that creating events for shows is a very good promotion tool. I wouldn't hear about half the events I'd like attend without this.

Wikipedia

I found it difficult to find any errors in the articles i browsed. Most of them were grammatical and not having to do with the spelling. I found that there were fewer mistakes on the more popular articles rather than the more obscure ones. This is probably due to the fact popular articles are read and reviewed more often.

Delicious

It seems that one of the advantages of using Delicious is how streamlined the browsing experience is. One aspect of this is the top 10 tag column which will highlight the most used websites at CPL. One of the disadvantages of Delicious is that the learning curve may be higher than our old best websites rescource. It may take longer for some to fully understand how to use it.

CPL 2.0

What do I hope to learn from CPL 2.0?
I am hoping learn allot more about delicious, flickr, librarything and twitter.
I have little or no experience with any of these.
