Twilight Twitter

here are 3 ideas:

One application of Twitter or the like for public libraries would be for the YA set who come in asking for the book based on a hot movie, like Twilight. We could send out word if all copies are out, and to request a copy, @ back with library card and pin number, or go to the online catalog and make a reserve. Of course, this would be a new way to place reserves, applicable to anyone who'd like a hot best seller.

Pownce offers photos and songs, too, so Programs could promote a program with a snapshot and incipit of music or lectures.

Our computer classes could send out a "still space available" to last minute takers, and remind those who have signed up.
