While playing with Flickr Fun, I discovered that you can use FD Toys to make trading cards from your Flickr photos. I also waded through setting up RSS feeds. I found out after completing the whole exercise that this is the hardest of the 23. Now I don't feel so dumb.
What I like about RSS is that it is a way to get news and information without logging into numerous accounts each day and scanning the page for information I want (not that I have quite figured out how to make it that specific yet). I will use this technology to keep my abreast of new books that are coming out, new program ideas for libraries and get a laugh from "Unshelved".
I think the library could use it to send patron-specific Reader's Advisory information, notify a patron that an item is in or due back.

I love the idea of trading cards...
Whew, I'm glad to hear that RSS was the hardest of the 23 things. There was so much to absorb! It is a really cool concept isn't it?
I like the look of your blog!
I am trying to catch up with all of you. I am looking forward to the RSS feed lesson - thanks for the warning that it is the "hardest"!
