Social networking applications like Facebook and Twitter would be great used in conjunction with major exhibitons such as Game On, or exhibitions which are collections-based and rely on a community of users / collectors to 'value-add' to the experience. Not sure if the TV program The Collectors has a Facebook or Twitter account, but if they don't, they should!
I like the idea of linking library catalogues to your Facebook page, as UQ has done. Perhaps SLQ should consider something similar in this Web 2.0 world where our social, professional and educational spheres seem to have well and truly converged, and where instant gratification rules!
Twitter is great for up-to-date information on the latest events and trends, and would therefore be useful for conferences and professional development. Perhaps Twitter will replace the traditional 'guest book' for comments on exhibitons and events.
