Librarians - what don't they know!?

Which is a parody of what Homer (Simpson) said about Rock stars.
I use answer boards for any problems I have with my laptop and I find them quite useful when I'm in the lurch and pleasantly surprised that people are happy to share their knowledge for free.

Yahoo Answers seemed silly to me, one question asked "What will a tattoo on my chest feel like? Hello?

In my opinion Ask Now should be promoted/marketed big time-but since that won't happen overnite, maybe staff that are rostered to Ask Now could answer questions @ Yahoo Answers and leave a link to Ask Now- that's if they have the downtime??

I DON'T LIKE BOOKS!

I think they are over rated. They just don't do it for me. That's right.
So why do you work in a library Davo? people ask me. I says, "have you seen the movie Kenny?" Do you think people who work in Waste Management like the product they work with??
Of course not.
Yes I own a few dust collectors, but i'm not about to get carried away and tell the rest of the world about it- my cred will be ruined. Hence Library thing is not my thing.
I liked Delicious tho- I've been using it alot. I can see it being used in teams as a way to introduce new sites to workmates and generally build knowledge.
