Web Presence
Weebly
www.weebly.com
Building a website on Weebly is unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. The drag & drop website builder makes it simple to create a powerful, professional website without any technical skills required. Over 6 million people and small businesses have joined Weebly to build their online presence. It also gives you detailed analytics on page views and visitors.
Content elements (like text, photos, maps, and videos) are added to your website by simply dragging & dropping them into place. Text is edited just like in a word processor. Building your website is done in real time, right from within your web browser. There's absolutely nothing to install and no upgrades to worry about.

Libraries using Twitter should encourage followers to interact with the library—ask questions, share links, re-Tweet interesting posts from others, and reply when people message them. Given the many potential uses of Twitter for libraries—not to mention the likelihood that patrons are already using it—it’s a great medium to embrace. You should post often and create places where users can get up-to-date information quickly. You can link your Facebook or blog accounts to automatically update your Twitter accounts.

Pintrest
http://pinterest.com/
Pintrest is a pinboard-style social photo sharing website that allows users to create and manage theme-based image collections such as events, interests, hobbies, and more. Users can browse other pinboards for inspiration, 're-pin' images to their own collections or 'like' photos. Pinterest's mission is to "connect everyone in the world through the 'things' they find interesting" via a global platform of inspiration and idea sharing.

Use a Google+ Page to host virtual book groups, answer questions, provide content to targeted groups,
or just make announcements. Check out Circles, Events, and Hangout to engage users to meet up and have lively discussions. Create circles for specific categories for example library patrons, library staff and librarians.
