Rollyo
I appreciate the appeal of rollyo, but much like the bloglines feature, I don't think I'll be using it. The one category that jumped out at me as being a possible rollyo is shopping. I created a small rollyo featuring some of my favorite shops. It'd be nice to search for "floral skirt" and have the results already limited. I'll spend some more time exploring some other examples, and may feel inspired to create more. I do like how you can a "Rollyo RollBar Bookmarklet" to your bookmark bar.

LibraryThing
I started my librarything account right after I started working here- February 13, 2007. I started my library, but never finished and it's a kick to go back and see what books I read in the first few months of being in Spokane. At first I was overwhelmed, do I add all the books I own at home and tag them? Or just add books as I read them? I tried a little of both, stopped, and then joined goodreads which I like- I just add books as I go. (When I started I did try adding all the books I've ever read ever, but that was too much). LibraryThing has come a long way since February '07 and has some really cool features now, including the "talk" forum where users can connect with each other on a huge variety of topics. My favorite thread to follow is "funny requests from patrons" which is here: http://www.librarything.com/talktopic.php?topic=17962#1110271.
