The category I selected was from start pages - PageFlakes. PageFlakes is a personalized homepage on the web where you put weather forecasts, local news, photos, music, podcasts the list is endless. You can have more than one page, you can create a page with friends or on your own. It was really interesting exploring the public pagecasts - go on have a look http://www.pageflakes.com.
and there's more it's free. It's a pandora's box of ideas.
In a library environment it could be linked to homepage to feature local weather, local news and events, maps and because it updates automatically it would be a good way of getting patrons to login just to have access to this information therefore increasing overall exposure of the library.
It even had a pagecast with "What's Web 2.0?" !
