Rollyo?

Hi all,

I've set up a Rollyo about library 2.0:

http://www.rollyo.com/bonariabiancu/the_geek_librarian/

Some months ago, I also tried a similar tool - Swiki:

http://biblioteca-20-swicki.eurekster.com/biblioteca+2.
0/

(again about "Library 2.0", but in Italian
version: "Biblioteca 2.0").

I've noticed that Swiki has more commercial ads than Rollyo
- furthermore
Rollyo gives explicitly communication of advertisements by
the "sponsored
links". However, with Swiki you have much power on
search engine's layout
and you can block trash tag/websites displayed within the
results, building
you own search patterns.

The Rollyo 25 websites are a big limit, and I'd like to try
the Gigablast
mentioned by Patricia Anderson. I think these customizable
search engines
can help in library activities: I suggested to colleagues of
mine to use
them in reference with patrons, setting them up on
pre-determined topics.

Best regards,

Bonaria
