Web 2.0, WorldCat and Social Bookmarking
Here are a few sites that will bolster the skills of any VR Librarian or technophile:
Virtual Karma: Complete List of Web 2.0 Applications | Rian's blog
Use eHub to stay current with Web 2.0 technologies.
Use delicious to view peer-to-peer tagged websites.
Use furl to tag websites and view those tagged by others (similar to delicious, but it has more of a social component).
Use bloglines to search for blogs on a topic.
Check out the Internet Archive, the Wayback Machine in particular, to view how reference services have developed over time -- hint: search for your library's web pages and view the site's development.

Great links...The one that really caught my attention on the Internet Archive link. With all the different choices one has, from music to just about anything else you can think of, it's a great resource.
glad you enjoyed the Internet Archive -- it's really worth delving into it. The Wayback Machine is fascinating, especially for its use as a device for historical comparisons of websites - nifty!
Sherry, thanks for the wonderful links. I can't wait to explore some of the sites listed. The amount of Web 2.0 applications out there is truly amazing and a little daunting.
