Thing tracking #14

Library thing, I think it was a casualty of me falling behind and when i caught up i totally forgot about it. I added books and created an account no problem. Looks like fun, although i'm not too into tagging but it could be fun to keep track of the things i've read....although who has time to read whenyou have a 2 year old??

Thing Tracking #22

I tried a long time ago to use overdrive, i found it pretty easy. I ended up placing a hold ojn a title, but never got around to downloading. I shouldn't have been surprised, i don't seem to have time to read a book why should i have time to listen to a book. I might give it another try down the road.

Thing Tracking # 23

Facebook. what can i say, i actually joined up over the summer I've been on for a while. It's fun, i've reconnected with some highschool friends, one who was an exchange student from Australia. I have all sorts of apps and groups on there.

Thing Tracking # 21

For Thing 21 we are supposed to look at adding podcasts to our blog lines account. I found a couple of genealogy podcasts I subscribed to "the genealogy guys" and two others. I think you can see them here http://www.bloglines.com/public/kmemorrison, I used bloglines to find the feeds and it was really easy.

Thing tracking #20

Ok, so i cheated a little on this thing. I have looked around youtube before, so instead i decided to upload a video to youtube, which i did, But i also see that i can add a video to my blog. So, making his internet dancing debut, is Ethan "lord of the dance " Morrison. Here is the Youtube link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fF9Dtq6MdQU

Thing Tracking #19

For 19 we are to try out some of the award winning sites. I noticed that Rollyo and Flikr are on the list and I have already "explored them". But that's cheating a bit, not in the spirit of the 23 things. I looked at cocktail builder http://www.cocktailbuilder.com which was under funs stuff. not that i'm a big drinker but at the library our bartending books are almost always checked out/missing. You can with look by ingredient or bu name of drink. I also looked a tht enumber 2 site for funstuff one sentance http://www.onesentence.org/. People try to sum up their life or a story of their life in one sentance. Not particularly useful but kind of interesting.

Thing tracking #18

For thing 18 we are supposed to go to Zoho Writer and try it out. I made a simple document, no biggie. It looks very much like MS word similar icons. I think i'll just stick with word. I don't see the need for zoho writer...other than it's free. I have access to word at work and home and a trusty flash drive to save my documents. Although once, i thought lost my flash drive what a disaster that would have been. So zoho writer would be good for that too, backup my documents so i never lose them.
