Web 2.0 Awards

Map search engines have come a long way with http://www.wayfaring.com/. You can create personalized maps. However, I will point out that it is a little difficult to manipulate and somewhat frustrating. For example, at first it told me that Leonardtown, MD didn't exist. It's an exciting promise of what map search engines might become, but it has to become a little more 'user-friendly'.
A lot of award winners were interesting, but they fell into 2 categories, either strictly recreational or serious IT professional. Very few were appropriate to the public library environment.
