Library/Web 2.0 Perspectives

I found the perscpectives interesting. Technolust-- the desire to go with something that's shiny and new because it's shiny and new -- is a tempting enemy which must be fought. I thought Wendy Schultz's Library 4.0 looked a lot like Library 1.5 -- that place between commodity and product with comfy chairs and task lighting.
So, what's the best way to stay with the 2.0 ball? Chase after it, and you're always behind. Get ahead of it, and it could suddenly curve or hit you in the head. Never take your eyes off it and you risk running into a tree. What's the tree? Dunno. But I'm sure it's there.
