Hey Jeff,
Great post. Totally read my mind. :)

I love the Media Library.

I use it for storing all images, documents, etc, and take full advantage of the services it currently provides (varying image sizes, basic editing, etc).

One thing that is really great about the Media Library is that the media stored within it can be used independently of blog posts or pages (for example, within a widget).

I'm contemplating compiling a blog post discussing several enhancements to the Media Library which I have found to be useful, as well as some weird and wacky uses for it. :)

Cheers and thanks again for the cool post,
Matty.
