Thing 18
I chose this clip, because I thought it was cute. I like the Wallace & Gromit cartoons and this was one that was similar. As far as YouTube I generally don't go to this site. It does have some great things, but there are also things that I don't want to see. This is a site that if you have kids using you need to be watchful of what they are getting into.
Thing 17
This is a tool that I use already. It is really useful to students who are looking for specific topics. I know we have shown kids how to use many of the databases that are available. We have also shown teachers that this tool is also available. We are lucky to have a few of our teachers that want to encourage their students to use these resources that are available.
Worldcat I use all of the time just to check and see if different items are available, and where they might be found.
This is a tool I recomend that others become familiar with.

Thing 16
This looks like a great tool for students and teachers, I just don't really see how effective it would be in a Public Library setting. This is one I would be willing to introduce to some of our teachers and their students.

Thing 15
This was great!!! The pirate game was a blast. It is on the same version as runescape working with everyone online. It can get a little confusing until you figure out what it is you need to do, but overall a lot of fun. This is one I just might contine to play.
Thing 14
Library thing is a really cool site. There is another site that is like this it is goodreads.com You can enter the books you have read and rate them. Your friends can also add books they have read and rate them. Everytime your friends enter new books they have read, you will get an e-mail letting you know what they have read and what they thought of the book. It may be another site some people want to check out.
