Thing 20

I was already familiar with YouTube. We have seen many of the video clips at home on our computer. I think it is amazing that there are videos for almost everything you would want to see, from way back when to just a few minutes ago. Things hit Youtube in a matter of minutes. You are always "in the loop" if you check daily.! Another winner.

Thing 19

I loved this exercise. I literally spent hours looking at all of the different sites. I went to the Web 2.0 awards (short) list and went through most of them. It is so interesting that you get hooked. One thing leads to another and before you know it so much time has passed. I especially liked the medstory and miniwidgets, but all of them were awesome. The best part of this was that I actually knew what they were talking about. If I went to this at the beginning, I would not have had a clue. This is a great learning experience. A+

Love it

Zoho writer

Well, I created yet another account, this time with Zoho writer and it was painless. Zoho writer is very easy to use. I like how all the icons appear and it is a useful thing to have even though most people use microsoft word. I kind of like this better. I like the set up of this. I can't believe how much there is out there that I didn't know about.

Thing 17

I created a PLCMC account and blogged about my favorite TV show and singer. Also, added by blog name to Favorite Blog . I spent some time reading about some favorite things that were blogged about. I guess I am just nosy and like that kind of stuff!

Thing 16

I can definitely see how this is a useful tool for many people. Teachers can share new ideas and for people in the business world it could be a valuable tool. Slideshows, charts, etc. can be constantly changed and updated. I went on to see how it worked and created a WIKI for my daughter's wedding (nothing elaborate!) just to see if I could do it! http://busterlove.pbwiki.com/Wedding+List?full_access=6f18G4F9ug&l=S

Things 13, 14 &15

OK del.icio.us was suprisingly easy to understandd and operate. Easy to follow along and I think this is more useful than Rollyo which still confuses me. This one i actually get.
Technorati to me was not too useful . I took the tour and it as kind of interesting. I do not want to post blogs so others can search and really don't care what others have to say.
I agree completely about "Iceberg". Libraries are constantly changing and the need to have a huge collection of dated material seems useless when most of it can be gotten online. Aslo, the roles of Libraries are changing. They are becoming gathering places and are the center of the community, and that is a very good thing.
