Week 10: #23 Is This the End?

Wow! Learning about blogging, Rss feeds, Library Elf, Avatars, etc; was really exhausting! But exhausting as it was, I really liked that I have learned so much I hope I can get back and remember how to use them. All this was new and a real challenge to me.

Thanks to my co-workers that came to my aide and together we learned to do the exercises. I know I'm open to any new challenges and it won't be so hard next time.

Week 9: #22 Downloadable Media

I've never downloaded any books and probably never will, but I've checked out several audio books just to listen to in my car coming in to work and home. I'm not a big fan of audio books just because it is very distracting while driving. I would rather cuddle in my bed and read a good book, especially a mystery or a good western. I did check out the HCPL library and I was a little disappointed that I didn't find the music I was searching for. While LibriVox and Wowio do have a good selection I would rather check out books from our Library.

Week 9: #21 Podcasts

There are so many Podcasts out there and so much information flying around that it was so hard to find something I was really interested in and willing to listen to. It takes alot of time to listen to every thing you choose, I finally did put a feeds on my bloglines.

Week 9: #20 YouTube

I visited the YouTube comedy site first because I love comedy. I thought I was goings to see some knee slapping, rolling on the ground funny videos but instead all I saw was not so good stuff. I was very disappointed. I went to the animal videos and I really liked to watch the little critters at play, dance and even talk to each other! I can watch them all day.

Week 8: #19 Web-based Apps

I created an account with Zoho and I really liked it. If I had to make a choice I would choose Zoho. All the tools are there and you don't have to worry about any software. This looks like something I would like to use in the future.

Week 8: #18 Social Networking

I went to all the networking sites and I wasn't too interested in any. I can see how these sites could be very useful tools for networking and if I had to choose one it would be Myspace.
