Rules of engagement
I ended the presentation with 5 rules/guidelines that I thought would be useful to take away. Its not quite a Web 2.0 manifesto like the librarians have or the archivists but more of an approach to engaging with the ideas.

THINK about what you want to do.
Many of these tools are very easy to use but enthusiasm for them can peter out if you don’t have a clear plan about what the tool will be used for and what content it will contain.EXPERIMENT these tools are flexible and it should be easy to think of ways you could use content in new ways if you keep an open mind.
ENGAGE find out what your users know about collections and what the best way to capture this knowledge would be. What do your users want from you?
LEARN find out what has worked for museums and libraries, can we learn from them - yes!
ENJOY have fun with this. Web 2.0 tools are meant to be fun and give you freedom to experiment. They aren’t meant to replace traditional organisational channels of communication but they can complement them and allow you to say things and relax a bit more.
