Online applications and tools

It's really interesting to see so many new 2.0 tools coming out that make it so easy to add content to the web and share this content. Some that I hadn't heard of before and that I will use from now on are Zamzar that allows you to convert file formats without needing to download software, Picnik for photo editing which is simple and intuitive to use and Ta-da List for a place to keep all your lists.

Some free webconferencing apps worth looking at are DimDim and Yugma. Doodle would be a useful tool for scheduling meetings.

Slideshare is great. While searching for library 2.0 there I came across this presentation by Mylee Joseph from Public Library Services which looks at ways libraries are using 2.0 tools http://www.slideshare.net/PublicLibraryServices/libraries-and-collaboration-with-local-government-nsw-public-sphere-2009 It is quite good.
