answer to emails about moving things

I moved my slide shows! I am so proud of myself for figuring this out.

thing 23

I finished. I don't know how to tell whoever is supposed to know about me finishing that I have finished.

thing 22

I will resolve to ask myself what I learned today. I might keep up with my blog. I will be able to answer patrons questions about the use of these 23 thing tools. I am glad I am finished and I signed up for so many things that I will never run out of e-mail messages.

thing 21

I signed up for ning and asked the person with the cat photo to be friends. My other friend insisted that I sing in but I really do not like being on line with people I don't know.

Thing 20

I set up a page for facebook and invited two friends to join. I am very uncomfortable using this media. Everything I put on it was false. I probably won't remember who I am.

thing 17

I learned that I don't know what I am doing concerning rss feeds. I am stuck. I do not like being stuck. I am stuck on a stick. My friend will say that I should not post such a note.

thing 16

What ever happened to get the assignment then do the assignment? Whatever happened to think for yourself? The links for quick study were very interesting. If I had a library patron who wanted a lot of suggestions for articles and books on their topics this would be fine.

Thing 15

Someone made me walk the plank on the pirate game. I am so dead. That is what I get for standing around asking for help. I may take more time to explore here. I go to pogo.com all the time. I find the games that involve me being a person don't work so well for me. I don't have enough experience with them.

thing 14

I took the tour of Library thing. I suggested to the head librarian that this could be a tool where we could list special collection of books owned by this library like Sherlock Holmes, Young Adult, Cartoons, etc.. I would like to be able to find books that interest me by using this Thing. I liked the idea of sharing book revues.

thing 13

This thing requires access to computer preferably in home. I use a calendar that I carry with me at all times. The computer would have to be small enough for me to put in my pocket and cordless. I am not aware of any such thing and would not use it anyway. Too much info for one who does not have a computer except at the library.

Thing 8 success at last. I got pictures from a library disc the created the trading card then uploaded to flickr then went to blog it.

thing 11

I put labels on all of my blog postings. It will save time in finding what I need to review/find in my blog. It's like card cataloging.

thing 10

Wikis were fun. I like the idea of a lot of people being able to communicate on the same page and think it would be good for people who are not living close to each other. I liked the site that did book reviews. It would help one to know which books are good.

thing 9

I found out about editing, creating a document etc using different places on the net. these things are mostly frustrating and I don't know how they can be beneficial if they are so hard to do/learn. Is it me or what?

Thing twelve

I sent a video to a fellow member of 23 things on a stick. I also watched a video about a teacher being spied upon. She got in doo-doo. I don't think I would use this tool in the library other than to refer people who want news over the net. It was interesting to watch TV on the web.

thing 7

I learned about instant messaging. This will be neat when someone goes on vacation and doesn't want to use the phone. Text messaging was something I could not do-I have no cell phone. I use e-mail only so I can get other accounts (like this one). The old fashioned way of conference calling using telephone I have experienced. We participated in a web conference regarding audio books. We could ask questions. Some of these things just are not useful to me. I only have access to the computer during library time when I am supposed to be doing library work.

Thing 5

This task makes the assumption that one has a picture collection or is capable of downloading pictures from the web/ and or has a digital camera. I have none of the above. I borrowed the camera for the thing 4. I also did not know how to use the camera. I guess I will stumble along to thing 6. Sorry-I do not see how this is useful.

thing 4


This is a picture of our flamingo in our library. It only took 3 days for me to get a picture on this page. Pull hair, scream, etc..!! AND ask for help, so I probably am only learning to ask for help and not learning THINGS. Can anyone give me a good reason to keep on doing this?

thing 3

I got an origami feed (I think), and a food feed, and a blogger feed. I know what the word aggregator means now. This might be useful for listing new books at the library....providing that the computer doesn't replace the library.

thing 2

I learned how to get to my blog to write a message!!! This is exciting. I read about why l2 is important. Libraries have to keep up with technology. The web is not to be feared but to be utilized to make information more available.

thing one

I created a blog and an avatar. I have a lot of trouble getting things to work for me the first time. The avatar has a dog but I would like it to be a chow instead, and I would like the person to have short hair but I feel that accomplishing the task itself was challenging enough. I truthfully have no idea how this blog thing would be useful in the library.
