Online productivity tools are fantastic. All I need is a computer with a web browser installed and I can create and modify documents without having software like MS Office installed on my computer.
The Web 2.0 Award had some great websites listed. One of my favourites was www.imcooked.com. This website allows anyone to videotape themselves cooking and describing their receipt and then post it on the web site.

What I Know Is...
Wiki's are fascinating. Imagine a web site with lots of information that is contributed to by people from all around the world. The advantage of the Wiki format is that no-one has to be responsible for putting up the information or getting other people to do it. People just add and update information when they want.
Libraries around the world are using wikis for all sorts of things like, book reviews and even how to run libraries like: http://libsuccess.org/
I would like to see a Wiki in the library that shows the patrons how to use the library facilities and outlines the rules of the library. This way patrons could add any useful ideas they have.
