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.

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.

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.
