[Web4lib] Critiques of Library 2.0?

Walt Crawford did a special issue of Cites & Insights a year ago on just
this:

Most have called it even-handed :)

Subject: [Web4lib] Critiques of Library 2.0?

 
  Just wondering if anyone has done any critical reviews of Library 2.0?
   
  I'm looking for even-handed accounts of the pros and cons of
implementing the various Library 2.0 applications. Like many new
technologies it seems there's a certain amount of hype accompanying
Library 2.0, and I am interested in hearing from folks who have taken a
critical look at it minus the hype.
   
  And, no, I'm not anti-Library 2.0. I took the same approach with
virtual reference when it first started up, and I was a virtual
reference supporter.
   
  Thanks!
   
  Bernie Sloan
