23 mobile things number 4

I really enjoyed the Zite app as it's layout really does look like a magazine.  The different stories that it pulled up really did a good job of matching the headlines of the 4 topics I was interested in, and it was very easy to touch a story and go to it's original site.  I definately can see advantages to this sort of specialized news coverage for patrons at the library because they wouldn't have to search many different websites in order to get todays headlines on the topics that they would want.

Of the utilities that I think would be used most for library or information would be google search.
This utility is good for gathering many possible answers to a signle query and presenting it in a was that can be scanned fairly quickly when looking up a topic.
