I can see many benefits for libraries to have a del.icio.us account. Tagging can be used to highlight specific websites on subjects such as HSC, local studies and genealogy. This is another way of promoting the library resources to the general public as well as providing easy access to information. I thought the Sutherland Shire Libraries del.icio.us page has an interesting idea by using tag bundles assigned to subject headings.
I typed bookmobile on the Technorati website in search and advanced search and found the same results, but when I use the tag search this narrowed the amount of hits I received. Technorati would be useful site to find blogs on a particular subject, but thats the only use I could see for this site.
I thought Library Thing was an interesting idea, useful for book groups. There are book reviews with star ratings and books on similar genres, this would appeal to book groups who want to see what other people are reading and their views.
