CIL2007 — Gadgets, Gadgets, Gadgets (Cool Stuff you can get right now!)

On the first full day of CIL 2007, this rapid fire presentation was delivered by Barbara Fullerton from 10K Wizard, Sabrina Pacifici, LLRX.com and beSpecific.com and Aaron Schmidt, Director of the North Plains Public Library. By the way, their website uses a blog interface. Very Cool.

Here are the highlighted items.

    Wow. BTW, I’m using Snap, which gives me a full image of the webpage that a link is linked to. It’s very useful and very cool.

    I’d love to get on your Christmas list.

    One more try. Is it that you’ve Snap-ified your web links? I thought it was my doing, then I went to Annette’s blog and the hypertext wasn’t showing me Snap images. So it must be something you did, right? If so, then I’ve got to do it on my blog too.
