I looked a few of the sites and they are a lot of fun! My favorites were Now Public and Bibio.com. Now Public is a site that has the public share with the world wide web about the news they see on their travels and every day life. There are ways to write news stories, download photos, upload from your mobile device or call in to 1-866-225-9530 leave a recorded news story.
Biblio.com is great because it is a search engine for out of print books. This is so helpful when working with patrons who are looking for older books that we don't have or are not on websites like Amazon.
It was also great to see one of our databases for language learning, Mango Languages ranked 2nd on the list of language learning sites.
I'm definitely going to look at more of these sites because it is not only helpful to our customers but also a lot of fun for myself.
