Thing #23

"And now the time has come...", wait a minute, it ain't over 'til it's over, and it ain't over yet!

Wow, what a ride, what frustration, what enlightenment, what techno savvy-ness and all-in-all what an education!! Thank you so much Howard County Library and Maryland Libraries Learning 2.0 for the opportunity to learn so much in such a short amount of time and to provide this program to assist in my lifelong learning.

Over the past few months, I found myself doing the lessons at home on Saturday mornings during my "quiet time for me" often spending way more time than 30 minutes on a Thing (sorry Jaye, it can't be done in 30 minutes, not with all the links!). I'm kinda' sad that I've finished the task and now won't have anything to do on Saturday mornings, but wait, there's a rumor in cyber-space that another program may be in our future. Well, count me in! (How about offering a free iPod to the finishers of the next program!?)

I really enjoyed learning the Things at my own pace and the podcasts were very helpful in explaining the topics in more detail. Some Things I really enjoy are RSS feeds and OverDrive and some Things that I probably won't use are online image generators and Technorati, but you never know. It's good to know that they are out there.


Thanks again for the opportunity to participate in the program, it still ain't over!!
