I never knew about any of these online tools. I think they are great!
I think the tada lists is a great way for the library to create lists of books whether they be in genre or awards. We could then link our catalouge to the titles so patrons could see if the book they wanted was available or reserve it if it wasn't.
I think GoogleDocs is an easy way for our members who have gmail accounts to create and edit documents while on our internet computers (which dont have word installed on them). The only problem that would restrict its use would be that you need a gmail account to use it and not everyone has one. Also slideshare would be another useful tool if people in the library on the internet PC's wanted to create a persentation without having to move computers.
I would also recommend picnik for staff and patron usage. Not all computers have photo editing software and this program is really easy to use and access.
Finally Zamzar is great if anyone needs to convert a file. Some students often want to create PDF's and this is an easy way to do it anywhere without having the adobe software. I would highly recommend this software.
