You can use it to look for anyone you want. You can even look them up by a username or an email address! If they're on any of the big-time networks like MySpace or Facebook, yoName will find them. Look up friends, family, ex-es. Look up yourself and see if someone's impersonating you. Or just have fun and look up celebrities!

1. Web 2.0 is a new way of utilizing the internet. It is a very powerful platform for sharing information.
2. I have learnt about various tools that I would use in my work, such as using tags (like key words), one-word descriptors, and how to design my bookmarks.
3. Yes. I can use blogs to pass along links and comments about the topics discussed in the classroom. In this way, students are encouraged to broaden their reading horizons beyond the traditional textbooks and references and explore different material in the World Wide Web.
