Thing 22 & 23

I don't know how small libraries can keep up with everything in technology these days. That is what makes being part of a regional library system so important to us.

Thank you for the opportunity to participate and learn so very much.

Things 18, 19, 20 & 21

So much information. So much to do. These are wonderful. Being able to watch videos over the internet is wonderful tool for business and home.

Things 16 & 17

Excellent research tools. Am impressed.

Thing 15

I am hooked on puzzle pirates now. I even hooked my children into it.

Things 11, 12, 13, & 14

We are in a more social world today. Ratings and reviews are all very helpful in disseminating articles and books.

I am especially impressed with Librarything.com. I love the way librarything.com can recommend books to read, as well as seeing what others who like the same books are reading.

Things 9 & 10

Collaboration is right. Wow is about all I can say.

Things 7 & 8

I have been using email for years now, but not IM. I see the attraction to Instant Messengers, but still prefer using email.

Things 3,4, 5, & 6 Completed

This sounds like a Dr. Seuss book (Thing 1 and Thing 2). Having one site to go to helps to keep up on current news, happenings etc. Makes your bookmarks less cluttered.

I am having fun with the flickr account and my pictures, although most of my pictures, I have not scanned onto a disk yet. Hope to soon though.

Things 1 & 2 Completed

I have now completed Thing 1 and Thing 2. This sounds very much like Dr. Seuss. Introducing Thing 1 and Thing 2. At the pace that I am going now, I am not sure that I will make the deadline for completion, but I do not have a lot of time to spend on the steps. I do not have internet access at home so I must do this at the library. I will do my best to complete all 23 Things on a Stick though. Thanks.

Thing 1 was easy. I already had set up a blog for the Harmony Library, but decided to set one up for my family.

Thing 2 was also somewhat easy. I had remembered after I set up a blogline that I had done this a few years ago.
