Thing 9

I tried to go to the Library of Congress site to edit a famous document. Something I would like to do. The document could not be found. I tried to report the error but that didn't work either since it was a link from the Things page. I will try again to do this.
Google Docs I don't know what is going on but I didn't have permission to edit anything in the document. Same with ZOHO Writer. So I am 0 for 3. I will go to these at another time and work with them.

I am getting very good at having multiple pages open and using the Foxfire tabs correctly. Not a total loss.

Thing 7

I am reading about productivity and email. Even though I have myemail set to be delivered as it arrives -- I only check it a few times a day. My home computer is shut down and only get to my desk a few times a day at work.
I remember ICQ from my daughter and from the 8th graders at the time. I will try to set up some IM with another member of 23 Things.
I will senda text message this week to my library aide as soon as I get back to work. I have attened two Webinars and I think this is the best thing for school librarians who are "islands" that have a hard time getting away.
I did look at the Minitex Webinar page. I will sign up for one of the Webinars that they are offering.

Thing 6

Wow, did I ever like the online image generator. I can see using this to teach my library skills. I always wanted to use a set of cards to do this. I made a couple of cards and a name badge. I uploaded a badge and it worked the second time but I deleted it because it had too much personal information on it.

Thing 5

I am exploring the Flickr mashups and so far here's what it seems:
AlphaLearner - beautiful pictures but the warning makes it unusable for school because whata student would see constanlty changes. BaeBo- Difficult to use, I can shop using multiple windows open much faster. I will invesitgate these some more when I have time.

Thing 4

Yes, I explored Flickr . I added it to my iGoogle homepage. Hope I can use it next time. I seem to have difficulty going back and using the different things.

Thing 3- RSS or So Simple Really

To all:
I know that these things are supposed to be really simple. Not to someone who is a really rusty they are really difficult. I have RSS on iTunes so I just will add to that for now. I really tried really hard to get my Google button and I couldn't really figure it out. I am going to really go on to Thing 4 maybe that is really a mistake.

Thing 2 = The Cat in the Hat

I know that Sr. Seuss in one of his books developed a character called Thing 2. I found out from thing 2 that I don't know very much about the Web 2.o, Library 2.0, or Business 2.0.

So I watched the video and thought I probably should check out Skype since I would love to visit with my granddaughter everyday. Also a teacher across the hall uses Skype to keep in contact with her girls who are in Madrid right now.

Doug Johnson's blog was a great find because he is someone that I know is a leader for the School Library Media Specialist. (I actually have met him)

Speaking of celebrity citings I was in the same room with the person who designed the PALS software. Try to top that.
