I added 2 search rolls using Rollyo- one called Theater Sites and one called Television Networks.
It took me awhile to get the hang of it but I think I have it now. I think these search rolls are very useful- it is great to have a good list of websites in one handy place. Being able to enter search terms to make it easy to find is very helpful.

Yeees- I added my Blog to the Favorite Blogs page in the Wiki Sandbox. I also explored the Revolution Health Site- a Web 2.0 award winner. I think it is a great companion site to MedlinePlus for consumer health information. They both provide up to date health news and allow you to search by specific disease or disorder. Revolution Health takes things a step further. You can create an account and set up your health records online, share your personal story and keep in touch with others who are going through the same thing. The site also provides access to blogs by health experts and to discussion forums on topics such as addiction and Alzheimer's.

Really like Princeton Public Library's BookLoversWiki. I liked the format and could go directly the category I wanted. I even found a few titles to add to my reading list. Would be nice to have SAPL have a Wiki like this.
The ALA New Orleans 2006 Wiki is very well done. Some great photos are included. It's great having all the information you need for the conference right there- the schedule, transportation information, even a section for first time attendees.
I think the subject guides/LibGuides work very well with a Wiki .

I really enjoyed the RSS exercise. I am a real "news junkie" so I added sites like CNN, the AP, Reuters and MSNBC. I also discovered a movie site- ""Ain't It Cool News" with interesting movie news and reviews. As far as library sites- I love "The Daily Unshelved"- it usually gives me a chuckle when I need one. I also subscribed to the PLA blog which keeps me up to date with the thoughts of others who work in public libraries.
