YouTube

Just recently I converted an old mountain bike into a single speed commuter bike. The video below got me started.

Camptasia videos that we created for the MADAR website could be uploaded to YouTube.

Podcasts

I'm been using ITunes since my first IPOD - never subscribed to podcasts. Nice feature!

Coolris plugin

I saw a demo of this plug-in during a Scholars Portal Day presentation. Nice way to view images -- I may play with this for the MADAR 'What's New' page.

Facebook

Great way to share pictures!

Google Docs

Very useful - to date I've used Google Docs for conference and canoe trip planning.

Google Maps was used to create the Library Mile application. Thanks to those who contributed.

Library Thing

Extremely easy to use. Search mechanism is excellent. I enjoyed reading the reviews.

Social Bookmarking

An excellent way to organize bookmarks. This would be very useful for the MADAR internet resources page. Links on this page lead users to free data downloads; however, there is no easy way to search through the page. Looks like another summer project!
