Library 2.0

I think the phrase "library 2.o" is already losing relevancy as it is beginning to feel like a majority of libraries have already moved to include at least some aspect of social networking and interactivity to their websites; it certainly is true with large libraries anyway. As with other developments along the information highway, this new way of doing business will quickly become second-nature and we will move on to the next new thing (which I doubt will be "library 3.0"). My favorite new web service in use by libraries are the photo sharing utilities. Having always been a librarian who likes to visit other libraries whenever the opportunity arises, these new services make the busman's holiday easier to enjoy more often.
