Welcome to our Blooksurf Blog. This space has been set up for our customers to share ideas on how they can use Web 2.0 tools in their library and in their school. We hope that it inspires you to think about how you can use some of the tools in your school.
We will be adding posts about Web 2.0 tools so that we can all learn from each other and develop and evolve how we use these tools in learning and teaching.

I'm enjoying looking at your blog. Last week's information on the Flip video was very interesting and the Librarian's Song was great.
Keep up the good work!
