I selected a site from the Web 2.0 Awards list (the short list) and decided to look at imcooked which came first in the food category ( this is a web community for video sharing of recipes). I did a search for any videos related to the topic chocolate, and found a great video titled "Chocolate Mocha Cake" - this is really a recipe for all you chocolate lovers out there. Have a look at the video below:
The imcooked site is where users upload videos of themselves demonstrating how to cook their own recipes, even kids can demonstrate how to cook their own recipes, check out the video below titled "kids cooking shrimp stir fry".
This is another resource that library users can access from the internet, here they can look at cooking demonstrations online wherever they feel like it, leave comments, and make friends with others who enjoy cooking similar recipes. This is a web 2.0 site that libraries can definitely point patrons to.
I did have a look at the category called Events and choose Upcoming, you can definitely apply this to a library setting, although you must register first to advertise your events. You can search for events happening within your own country, you can even choose the day and month to see what events are happening on that particular day and in that particular month. Great for advertising Library Week, Manix, School Holiday Programmes, and Tea and Topics happening in Manukau Libraries. This could also be used to advertise festivals taking place in Manukau City like the Polynesian cultural festival, Chinese New Year celebrations, and concerts being held in the local area.
