Library 2.0: thing 15

I love the video, "The Machine is Using Us." It's very creative. I read Michael Stephens blog @ 2.0 and the OCLC summary by Tom Storey. I do think that applications for YouTube, Flckr, LibraryThing and del.iciou.us are already quite heavily used by librarians of any ilk. I am on the public library listserv (Publib), and read many references to how and why libraries use these tools. We have seen several examples throughout the 23 Things links. I think that it is essential to teach use of these tools in library schools these days, and know that a colleague in a graduate program is taking such a course this very semester.
