Week 8 #19 Discovering Web 2.0 tools

There are so many tools on the web that we could be using to help us with our work and hobbies-you don't have to start from scratch anymore nor do you need to go out and buy a package from a shop. I looked at the genealogy sites and it is much more easy than the clunky package I ordered a couple of years ago. There is also the added advantage of uploading digital photos or scanning old photos to add to the relation's profile. There are other people you can ask for help of build up an online relationship with (if you are brave - still a bit wary myself).

I went through the "best of list" and there are alot of sites we have been using in the web 2.0 lessons - flikr, rollyo etc. This would be a useful address http://www.seomoz.org/web2.0/short to add to my delicious account so that if I need a particular "tool" I can log into delicious and see if there is a recommended site I could use. Maybe in a few months when all this web 2.0 sinks in and I actually use some of these sites I have been playing with.
