Tags and Participatory Networks

3/15/07: Michael Johnson (following Bill Drew) cites Participatory Networks : the Library as Conversation on a Library 2.0 wiki forum and asks: " I wish to receive advice on how best to introduce what may be the paper's principal recommendation: '... the authors [Lankes, Silverstein and Nicholson] recommend the creation of a shared participatory test bed for libraries. This network would not only experiment with new collaborative Web technologies, but also work with library organizations and vendors to speed innovation in traditional library systems.'" Seems to me that Library 2.0 is doing this already, at least the first part.
