This week's Library 2.0 adventure has taken us to Google Docs, where we added songs to a group spreadsheet. Very cool that ten people at a time can add content. We were also introduced to a few online applications and asked to share our impressions.
Of the three productivity applications suggested, I took a look at Basecamp. It certainly looks like a great organizational tool, especially for groups, but it was not free (as far as I could see) so I didn't sign up.
The photo editing tools seem like a great idea, but I got hung up on Phixr (screen froze) and had to Ctrl/Alt/Delete my way out of there. Not a great impression.
As for the library tools, I've been on LibraryThing for a while but have not been a frequent user. I just haven't taken the time to add all my books to the site. I do love some of the possibilities there though, like finding someone with, say, 50 of the same books as you and seeing what else they have. Lots of fun.

Ha! I love "Ctrl/Alt/Delete" as a verb :) I had a good phixr experience. It was Picnik that I got hung up on, because I didn't have the latest version of Flash.
