Thing #23

Wow, I can't believe I made it! This has been an awesome experience and a challenging one at times, too. This program has afforded me to take the time to learn about some of the new technologies that you hear about in passing conversations with people. Now some of the terms such as wikis, podcast, utube, blogging, etc. are no longer mystery words.

I would definitely do this again!

Okay, I'm one step closer to getting my prize. I listened to the tutorial, created my NetLibrary account, and familiarized myself with the site. I can't wait to download my first eaudio to my MP3 player.

Thing #21

I subscribed to Yahoo Podcast and searched around for some interesting Library pods. I came across a SirsiDynix podcast which is the company that provides the software and support that our system uses for circulation, cataloging, serials and our HIP.

What a wonderful song


My son introduced me to this band (Slightly Stoopid). I think I like their version of the song almost as much at the original by John Denver, and no this is not my son.

I perused the award winners and was amazed at some the sites available. I found three that I explored and would most like use again. 1. Kayak: another Expedia or Cheap Flights. 2. Cocktail Builder: A good resource for bartending(imagine that). 3: Yelp: A fun and easy way to find what's great or not go great in your area.

Watch out Microsoft! I think this will be a great option for people who want to share documents. All of Zoho apps look very similar to Microsoft Office products.

Thing #17

Woohoo, now I'm having fun! I didn't want to leave the sandbox and had to pry myself away from playing with my pbwiki that I created. I added several entries to the favorites in the PBwiki Learning 2.0.
