Rolling over for Rollyo

OK - This is thing "7" (or 6, if you don't count Facebook...) I created a Rollyo account, and created an "Online Shopaholic" search engine. Check out the link - to the left...

This could be hugely useful at a library - In fact, for one of my current LIS classes, I think I might Rollyo several of the "approved" free or open-web sites we can use in our research. I can see libraries doing the same, and even breaking them down by category (such as, Fine Arts; Popular Authors (home pages, which often contain information about upcoming releases and also series orders); medicine; law (free legal websites - including, I believe, Google (or is it Yahoo) which now offers actual case search capability...)... Government websites (IRS, unemployment etc.). Uses could be endless. Good stuff!
