Making the most of your digital life

My favourite magazine, Wired, has a great pull-out this month entitled "HowTo: a step-by-step guide to making the most of your digital life" which we think is great because it fits so well with our own feature Get a digital life who Knows - maybe Wired is watching CCL for great ideas.

In the article Wired covers the best tools for all things digital: photos, ipods, MySpace, youTube and more. In our feature we show you how to make the best use of our resources to find the best information online.

Here's a couple of other fun online tools for the digerati:
LibraryElf: CCL sends out email notice of when books are ready for you to pick up and when they are overdue but those in the know use LibraryElf to get those messages at the times that suit them and to multiple email addresses
LibraryThing: catalogue your own books and add tags (more on tagging later). Find out who has the same books and other books that they have - a great way to grow your own collection. LibraryThing has also recently added a feature to create groups - an excellent feature for clubs where members are happy to swap books
