Week 8- Web 2.0 awards

Looking at the short list, I see that several of the 23 Things have won. I looked at a few of the other winners including Meebo, Squidoo, and Biblio. I've noticed people using Meebo to get around the filtering of MySpace because Meebo allows them to instant message through more than one i.m. provider. Genius! Squidoo seems particularly adaptable to libraries. Through this site, anyone can create a lens into their passion: books, movies, libraries, etc. Biblio is another way to search for books online. This site can be used to search for out-of-print material, although when I tried to filter for price, that feature wasn't working. Overall, I'd say that I've been impressed by what I've seen.
