Web 2.0 technologies, like del.iciou.us, Podcasting, Netvibes, Second Life,

LibraryThing, Screencasting have almost unlimited possibilities. But how can you use

these in library instructions?

In this paper I will focus on personal start page tools like Netvibes (look-alikes are

iGoogle, Pageflakes, MyYahoo). With this tool you can make your own free personal

start page. It allows you to put all your web resources into one page, including blogs,

news, email, podcasts, pictures, videocasts, rss-feeds. You can also share the content

of a Netvibes-page with others. This makes it possible to develope pages for specific

departments but also to use it in instructions. In the presentation I will demonstrate

Netvibes: What is it, how do libraries use Netvibes, do they use it at all? How can we

use Netvibes in our library classes?
