WEEK 7 THING 17
I added my blog to the Maryland Libraries Sandbox. I was pretty impressed by the number that are already there. I even bookmarked this site with my del.icio.us account. I posted to several of the existing favorites lists and enjoyed reading about favorite vacation spots.

WEEK 7 THING 16
WIKIS! I thought I knew what they were because I have been to wikipedia....boy was I wrong. I am amazed at the wide variety of applications in library settings. I think having a wiki subject guide that anyone can post to is a great idea. I looked at one and selected cooking and I then linked to the Southern Living website. I also selected a book title and went right into the library catalog. It's all about expanding access!
I would love to see BCPL create a wiki for a new construction project....hint, hint Perry Hall maybe. That would be so cool for all of us (including the Perry Hall community) to be able to follow along more closely as the project progresses. Of course it would have lots of photos during the construction phase and other bits of information.
I am also going to keep wikis in mind when working on projects.
