They can use a search engine, type their terms and get zillion of hits, now that makes them feel successful. If the answer is not there a librarian is near to provide the answer.

I bookmark way too much in del.icio.us. In replacement, I added a list of the last 5 items I've added to del.icio.us in the sidebar, in case anyone is actually interested in what I'm adding to del.icio.us.

Who wouldn't want to go to that? So often, she ends up with the least appealing presentation titles imaginable, which is a shame.
