Cool Stuff
Here are links to a variety of sites and initiatives across the web. This is not an exhaustive list, nor do all these sites reflect the opinions of the University of Michigan. That said, they are all interesting. Some entries are more directly related to library and information science than others, but all have something to say about either usefullness, design, or innovation. Or sometimes, all three.
And it is not full, on purpose. Some sites will stay, others will change.
