Thing #19 Web 2.0 Award List

This is an great list. I love how it is organized because it saves me time...it is broken down into categories. Libraries and school can benefit from this site by using Lulu, Docstoc, Google Docs, etc.

The one that I got carried away w/ was last.com. If you are into music this is a great site. It allows you to create artists in your library and listen to the full song -not just 30 seconds. Also, while you are listening to an artist, it will pull up numerous similar artist to listen to in case you want to add it to your library. Another neat feature is that you can search for an upcoming event that an artist will be at. Last.com describes in detail a full biography about the artists, shows videos, in addition to shows how many people are listening to the same song you are playing...pretty neat!

Another favorite was revolutionhealth.com. You can have group disscussions on various topics (medications, diseases, treatments, etc.). There is a lot of health benefits on this site. I reresearch webmd.com daily and I found information on this site that I did not find on WebMD...may start researching this site instead...
