First, for whatever reason I can't seem to post comments, so for those of you who have left comments on my blog entries I promise I'm not ignoring you, I just can't respond. Thanks for reading, and for commenting!
Next, "Tracking Your Library." Woah, information overload!! Between Google Alerts, Social Mention and Addictomatic I am definitely receiving too many alerts in my email inbox. And honestly, I'd rather read blogs, which, by the way, I haven't had time for since I started having to siphon through the alerts I am now receiving. However, I have schemed up a nice little use for Social Mention that may or may not work. If so, it will make its appearance on The Bibliophiles website soon. I will re-post if it works out.
Also, I do like the idea of being able to find out what's being said about your library. People will say things online that they would never say to your face, or even put on a comment card for that matter. Keeping track of what's being said can help public relations facets of community outreach, and help when implementing new programming. But I would definitely use these three technologies on an as-needed basis (unless you were the library's PR person).
