Web 2

http://upcoming.yahoo.com/
I looked at this Event site, I was surprised to find it was for Melbourne. This did not have much information in it but could be useful. This could be used for library events, the public could book them selves in.

Wikis

Another great way to share information I have used wikipedia before and found the description on Collingwood interesting. A local history wiki could be just one application for libraries a sort of Collingwood remembered.

Del.icio.us

I think this is a very useful resource that can be used for just accessing and filing your bookmark to being used as a research tool as in the video example of the teacher sharing bookmarks with his co-workers. Once set up I think it will be a great time saver and information sharing tool.
