Award WInners

I was pleased to see that I was familiar with most of the award winners--and even the runnes up--on the SEOmoz.org website. Some I use, many I learned about discovering the 23 Things. The one I chose to visit was lulu, an on-demand book publishing site. There are easy-to-follow instructions to create your book, a sales site, and forums for sharing experiences with other self-made book publishers. I took a look at the photo books. It's easy to use photos you have uploaded to flickr and facebook, so once you've dived into web 2.0, you can use your online resources for a wide range of applications. I imagine that's a key characteristic of web 2.0: it's not just sharing among individuals, but with other websites for endless customization of content. (Thing #20)
