Ideally  the  activity  will  have  more  than  one  of  the  4/5 C  elements  present - collaboration;  conversation;  community;  content  creation;  crowd  sourcing.
So,
D-Direction.  What  is  the  goal?  Without  a  Mission  Statement  up-front  it  would  be  all  too  easy  to  get  side-tracked,  lost,  overwhelmed.
B-Blog  is  not  too  bad,  it  allows  information  to  pass  both  ways,  with  feed-back;  could  be  utilised  for  'slow'  virtual  reference;  allowing  a  subject  to  be  developed  over  time.
F-Facebook  is  obvious.  Interactive,  multi-platforms,  and  popular,  an  easy  sell,  familiar,  desirable.
P-Pod-casting  is  more  a  one-way  affair,  unless  it  the  public  are  able  to  upload  their  own - reviews  for  example,  which  could  be  aggregated  by  subject  or  title - What  should  my  child  of  10  read?  to  King  Lear.  Otherwise  worhtwhile  as  it  is  accessable  via  Ipods  and  mobile  phones,  which  are  ubiquitous,  and  very  used.
That's  4,  counting  never  was  a  strong  point.
