GREETINGS O Newly Wise Ones .....
Well I did learn many things about web2.0 and etc.
I will continue to do much of what I have learned because I have begun to use some of it, the easy stuff, on the library blogs and I really want to make the library interesting and FUN! I will not promise to check this blog everyday, but I will TRY to keep blogging when I find something new. Since my aggregator is part of google and so is blogger I shall probably be checking it every so often or move it over to the library account. There is too much I want to do ... wish me luck on accomplishing some of it. Thanks to Donna who looked at different places and things than I did and therefore helped me get through 23 Things much more easily than I otherwise would have done. SuperS

THING 21
Here I am. As you can see below this blog I joined 23 Things in Ning. I like the idea of badges and it was very easy to add. I contacted three people to be my friend and two were available to answer. Added this Ning thing to my RSS feed so that maybe I will see it and read something. Maybe join something else later. I need to think it out more thoroughly. This is very interesting and I will explore more in the future. SuperS
THING 20
Well - I set up two social networking accounts. In facebook I managed to sign up two 'friends', joined a very local small local group, and wrote on its wall some gibberish. I also joined myspace. This was easier to use in many ways. Easier to find out who is on it that you already communicate with and easier to get in and out. I loved the Denver Public Library My Space Page - Cool Kitty Kitty - fun to explore. As usual I print everything that interests me so I can read it at home and use it later if I have time. Maybe sometime I will use myspace or facebook - who knows..........

Thing 19 - Grand Finale
No more podcasts for now. I subscribed to the grammar one. This got me to find my reader which I had not even thought of since I made it. I like public radio. SuperS
Thing 19 No. 2
How very interesting this is. I do enjoy it, I wish I could do this with pix. I suppose I can but I haven't seen how. Have a good day. SuperS P.S. I am here at the library on Sunday afternoon working on this ... yup I know but I'll get done.
1st Thing 19 Podcast???!!
I have done something to my blog. Don't ask me what but click on 1st Thing 19 ...
See what happens. I like it this way. SuperS

Thing 18
My You Tube is there under Thing 18? you just can't see it. I enjoyed looking at videos - too much so. I posted to my blog the machine is using us cause I like it soooo much. Looked at many of suggestions and thought most were dumb. Lick Library tours like the one for WSU and the LC one called trip to the library. Liked the Swedish one and sent it to family. One really has to be careful about how creative you are for I can see, looking at the library tours, how easy it is to be boorrrring or allow yourself to get really weird! It would be fun to try to figure out how to do a video without a camera or any other tech stuff - i.e. some of the online picture stuff we did earlier. Maybe I will get the TIME! Thanks. SuperS

THING 17
We have had ELM in the Arrowhead Library System for years. On our homepage it has been available as a link Magazine and Newspaper Indexes. I do not wish to have anything else coming to me that I am not interested in and therefore I am not doing the RSS feed. I know I set a reader up but I have never checked it. TIME! and I am sorry to say inclination. SuperS
THING 16
I am going to put this in small print for I cannot see how I can use this. We have very few students use the library to do research. Its all done on computers at school. Maybe the school librarian will be able to use this thing productively. Planning on the computer would take away from time I need to do. SuperS
THING 15
Hello out therrrreeeeee! Ahoy mateys! Whatever. Tried both Puzzle Pirates and Second Life. Played one game on Puzzle Pirates. Made some money so I will have to decide what to do next. I am not one to play games, slow learner. Signed up in Second Life but I could never get in. Spent over an hour off and on trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Maybe try again tomorrow or next week if I think of it. I'd rather play solitaire. SuperS
THING 14
GOOD DAY! Really like the idea of Library Thing. So much so that I came two hours early today and put our Sherlock Holmesian Fiction Collection into Library Thing and then put it on our Pix N Things blog on the library home page. Not hard to do at all but I used up all of my free space. Oh well. Thanks for the idea. I tagged the collection Sherlock Holmes and Buhl Minnesota for anyone who is interested and doesn't want to go to our home page. SuperS

Thing 13
I am here again today! I find that I already have a My Yahoo page. It comes every time I sign in to my Yahoo account. Several things interest me but I don't HAVE TIME!! I bookmarked zamzar mostly because I could have used it earlier this week, maybe use it again when I receive something weird. I really like the look of backpack so bookmarked it for later. I use a paper desk calendar and don't have a computer free to use a computer one so redundant. I do not list - have to find list to use it, have to spend time keeping it up, have to be organized. I have seen tinyURL around, especially in email from Arrowhead Library System. Finally I bookmarked lifehackers guide to free software - I know, I'm suppose to bookmark on delicious, but I would never find anything if I did that. I want to use what I know how to do. Maybe when I have time.
Thing 12
Greetings Thing People! I have just read Thing 12 and did that which I could do without joining anything - although I am going to suggest newsvine to someone I know who is a news junkie. I read an article on Africa - Tanzania and how they are working at setting up a social service to help the extremely poor. I then entered the article into delicious and tried to dream up tags at which I am very very poor. I also emailed the article to a very good friend who will be very interested in the article having been in the Peace Corps in Tanzania. I do not think I shall use this thing NOW. Maybe in the future when I have a computer at home but I do not think so. I already get too much information for my very small brain. A very interesting thing tho. SuperS

THING 11
Greetings to Whoever Reads These Things! Thing 11 has finally been gone through and some work DONE! I added some tags to my Buhl Public Library Skylight Pictures for one thing. This was very easy, and I do not know if what I did will help the pictures show up or not. I have tagged some pictures in my flickr account and if I am not in my account I cannot find them, soooo. What am I doing wrong. The Pictures and public. Delicious is easy and fun. I do not like sharing too much but I put in the page of the person whose video I watched (LibraryBytes). That is an interesting page. Then I checked my bookmarks and added the weather page I use. And finally I added the pix n things blog from the library homepage. My tags are probably really bad, for I have no immagination for labeling. I then looked at the library list that said these libraries used tags. I noticed them for one library. The rest I got caught up in looking at their homepages, their designs et al. Interesting but time again limits use. Maybe when I have nothing else to do. SuperS
