Social Networks Explore continued
Second Life is owned by everyone with input. Geneology, science fiction etc. More client interaction than in the past.
Libraries can present services to another generation who are familiar with new technolgies as blogs, You Tube, Bebo etc which they are using on a daily basis.
To be able to present information/provide the means for feedback for some rural and smaller libraries is a challenge. There is a need for expertise/ further training and most importantly the time to complete.

Online Applications Discover and Explore
The use of Google Docs and other sharing software has the potential to promote more discussion and sharing of ideas.
Individuals are able to make suggestions to a document without having to be physically present i.e. due to time constraints or with having to travel long distances as with travelling in rural areas to the city.
Meeting face to face is most benefical due to being able to bounce ideas from one another but this is not always able to be arranged.
