Eveleve’s Evel Events

Some of the mashups seemed completely useless, or at least for my lifestyle.

I did find one I found interesting http://lazylibrary.com/ — which lets you look for books that are 200 pages or less. This could be great in a Public Library – where you get asked all the time for school assignments for books that are 100+ pages, but not more then 200 pages.

I looked up the privacy stuff – and because I read Shifted Librarian, Krafty Librarian, AL and the others – I didn’t really find much new to me on the topic – but I can see how this might be useful if you are trying to brush up on a topic, or what to see what other Librarians are doing.

I think the ability to share pictures is great. That way people can pick and choose what pictures they want and buy the sizes they like. I tend to use Kodak’s gallery – because I like the ability to send the prints to Target and pick them up there. I worry about privacy, but things seem to be fairly secure.

I am not sure how we might use this in our Library. Though it might be a great way to archive and share some of the things that are happening at our various locations.

Here are some great pictures of Emily.

I was really impressed with the capabilities of Google Docs. I think it could be very useful when working with groups of people who are located in different offices, or even different companies. It would cut down on the email and the confusion.

I also looked at Zoho and was impressed with how many different applications they offer. You could run a small business with all of their applications.

I can see how some of the workteams I am on could really collaborate with googledocs. Polices, procedures, committee documents – all of this would be easier then emailing everything back and forth. It also stores them – which means you don’t have to worry about accidently deleting the email, or in our case archiving it within so many days -so it doesn’t get dumped.
