How libraries use blogs

I have just been looking on Technorati to see how other libraries use blogs. I have found some really cool blogs out there from libraries all over the world. I like that libraries are using blogs to promote events and letting their followers know what is going on. I found it really interesting to see what other libraries are doing and how they are using blogs. I especially like the ones that have video and pictures as it helps to visualise what they are posting about. i found the Christchurch City Libraries blog very informative and easy to navigate and it was very well set up with pictures and I like the use of the subject cloud. Another blog I found very good was the Smithsonian libraries one which was fairly plain but had some very interesting info on it.
I am hoping that we can take some of these good ideas to use in a blog for my library if it is approved.
Thanks for reading about my discoveries Of web 2.0 technologies.

First ever blogging experience

Hi everybody in the blogging universe,
This is my first ever post on any blog ever and i am finding it very cool and easy to use.
I am doing this blog as a way to learn about web 2.0 technology through a course for my work in the library. I hope to have a better understanding of web 2.0 when I finish this course and maybe start using these technologies to let the public know what is happening at the library.
