Week 10: #23 The end?

It has been a very interesting and informative 10 weeks for me.
A little time consuming.....but mostly fun.
I was already aware of some of the exercises....youtube and meez for example.
Other things, like RSS feeds, Library Elf, Delicious, Podcasts, etc....I had never heard of.....
but they are also things that do not have a place in my internet use.
However, just because I do not have a need for them, it is still useful information to cram into my head...you know....just in case!
I'm not one to write a book on the matter.....I completed the course and I am more knowledgeable as a result. Hopefully, if presented with an opportunity, I can impart some of my newfound knowledge on others.
Thanks!

Week 9: #22 Downloadable media

I browsed the sites for downloadable media.....and found some very interesting childrens titles.
My daughter much prefers to "listen" to books than to actually "read" them, so I think this will be very useful for us.
I will definately download some digital titles for her soon!

Week 9: # 21....podcasts

I explored the podcasting sites and found some interesting podcasts on scrapbooking. However, they are pretty long and I do not have time at work to listen to the complete program. I'll do that at home when I have time.....LOL!....Yeah....its Christmas rush time....so it may be a while...sorry....

Week 9: #20 Discovering YouTube

YouTube is not a new experience for me. It certainly can be entertaining!
My daughter loves to look up clips of funny cats.
One of the exercises is to post a youtube clip into my blog...I did that earlier, however, so I won't do it again....
