23# WOW!!!

Wow! I can't believe I actually managed to get through all 23 "things". Most I found interesting, some like Technorati I probably won't ever use again. Loved playing with Flickr, Image Generators, Library Thing, Podcasts and the downloadable audio books. I am thrilled that I can actually create a blog and feel I am one up on my children! At the beginning of this exercise I was quite tentative but have gained so much confidence in exploring all this new technology. I am sure that I will be able to make use of at least some of the things I have learned in these past few weeks. Many thanks to the staff who gave me a helping hand in the few weeks I had before I had to go it alone(on holidays). I am even more pleased with myself that I have finished the majority of the work "alone"!!

22#Downloadable Audio books

I loved exploring the World EBook fair site- enjoyed listening to poetry readings "Alone" by Edgar Allan Poe and a new one for me "When Lilacs last in the Dooryard Bloom'd by Walt Whitman-- so much better listening to poetry than reading yourself. Great for finding unusual or out of print material- nice to get something free too.

21#Podcasts

I have to use podcasts on home PC as I can't access them at work!!! Great for catching up on missed Radio programmes- also familiar with using iTunes for sampling various musicians. Think using Podcasts on Library website might be a good move to advertise particular events etc- sometimes people react more to sound than nreading od text messages.

20# YouTube

Like lots of people I find YouTube fascinating,lots of interesting video clips, lots of fun. I especially like the TV promos-especially one of my favourites Little Britain. I am a bit concerned over some of the more dubious clips and wonder where all this technolgy will end up

#19Web 2.0 awards

I had a quick look at Lulu.com-would be great if only I had some creative juices to use this site.

I also enjoyed playing around with the Care 2 site-finding sites with petitions to sign was quite easy and I had a bit of fun creating my own petition-only trouble is I can't find where it went! so I won't advertise it until I can find it. Once again to use it you have to sign in and I am sick of signing in, passwords etc.

#18 Zoho Writer

Have just had a little play with Zoho- isn't it great that it is free especially if you don"t have Word on your home computer.

#17 Playing around with PBWiki

I actually had a bit of fun with this one and enjoyed looking at peoples comments about their favourite books, animals etc. This little beauty is very much like my birman but Harry is a bit more choclatty!
