There are lots of things I can see myself using a lot, and some things I never see myself using. But I have to say that my favorite thing was #23 - finishing. It did hang over me at times.<br />All in all I am glad that I participated and I would be willing to do so again, because it was definitely a learning experience.BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-3205646582986527922007-09-19T07:58:00.000-07:002007-09-19T08:00:04.814-07:00#22Wow - I never had the opportunity to really explore all of this, or I should say I never took the time to explore all of this. There is a lot more available that I ever realized. I can see myself using this quite a bit, personally and in working with patrons.

I added a podcast about children's books to my Bloglines.

They were things I could see using.

I don't mind telling you that I'm too old for all this stuff. I always feel like I'm going to panic whenever I start doing some of these 23 things.

I'm sorry, but I don't see them as tools for the library and the public. I can see explaining them to patrons and telling them how to access them. I do see them as something very useful in education, especially colleges and universities.BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-19138064592708588872007-09-17T10:15:00.000-07:002007-09-17T10:22:18.588-07:00#15The first perspective I read was "Away from Icebergs" - I understand what he is saying, but I found it very depressing. I think there is great value "library collection." I think our patrons love the idea of books in the printed sense. I can see where some patrons are doing everything electronically, but I think there is plenty of room for both to exist.<br /><br />The second perspective I want to respond to is "To A Temporary Place in Time"<br />I enjoyed reading this and I agree. LIke I said above there is room for both, and the library can be a focal point in it all.BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-50603033559053778752007-09-17T10:02:00.000-07:002007-09-17T10:05:21.227-07:00#14I played around with Technorati, and I understand how this works.<br />However, I don't want anything I write tagged, and I really don't see myself going to see what other people have blogged about that much.

I tend to get scared of new things and am very apprehensive and tentative when trying them for the first time. Once I get the hang of it, though I usually am amazed at how much easier it makes everything.<br /><br />I especially like digital cameras. I love how you can download the pictures to your computer to view as a slideshow. I also like putting the pictures on a disc and taking it places to share, rather than the prints of old.BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-33777740842985530012007-06-27T13:01:00.000-07:002007-06-27T13:03:42.085-07:00#6I played with the mashups some and they were fun<br />I especially liked the Mappr, and I could see using it in the future<br />There is just so much time involved, and when you are only 15 hrs., and have another job, I just don't see myself doing it anytime soonBM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-79537682795614639422007-06-26T16:24:00.001-07:002007-09-11T10:50:28.930-07:00#5<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguoN2fiuoZaatFuX6AkTPhYJ5zuUwvNQI4y_HiurxLMhnHMMtH3q3IPXvpSqNfZGAxY2m3gAN31zqCpjEvoATC67zfXck-9va2m3glCXE74sO6r2c-_gFiZTniIBQbdPhrMVs4YYZDucP1/s1600-h/DSCN04870001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5109005282234604786" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguoN2fiuoZaatFuX6AkTPhYJ5zuUwvNQI4y_HiurxLMhnHMMtH3q3IPXvpSqNfZGAxY2m3gAN31zqCpjEvoATC67zfXck-9va2m3glCXE74sO6r2c-_gFiZTniIBQbdPhrMVs4YYZDucP1/s400/DSCN04870001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I explored Flickr - my favorite picture from my vacation to Cancun in April </div>BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-57643467897186958892007-06-20T14:25:00.001-07:002007-06-20T14:25:33.345-07:00#4I registered the blog with HCPLBM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-70804842003645287872007-06-20T14:23:00.000-07:002007-06-20T14:25:12.766-07:00#3I created a BlogBM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-1330415237380016372007-06-20T13:46:00.000-07:002007-06-20T13:47:40.063-07:00#2easiest habit - have confidence and know I am competent<br /><br />hardest - don't look at everything as a crisisBM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2126070331130404534.post-21907464311174115102007-06-20T13:45:00.000-07:002007-06-20T13:46:11.591-07:00#1Wow - this is going to be very interesting!BM's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11292485790129160324noreply@blogger.com0
