Week 4, Thing 9

Checked out Merlin & added a few library sites to my newsreader: Library Journal News, BlogJunction, PLA Blog. Added some other just for fun sites like the local Salisbury/Wicomico political blogs, Unshelved, and Billboard News. Added the 23 Things Blog of someone I won't name just to see which one of us catches up fastest or comes closest to finishing 23 Things this week!

Week 4, Thing 8

This has been a fun one but challenging. I think I get RSS feeds (at last!) and have set up my Bloglines newsreader account with 11 feeds so far. I did have more but don't know where they went !! I can see how this is very useful if you check a bunch of web sites or blogs on a regular basis. I usually don't, so this is something new.

Week 3, Thing 7

Technology is useful but advances so rapidly that it's frustrating to try to keep up. No, I don't have a digital camera at home, but I use them here at work and know how to upload and edit photos, etc. Hell, I don't even have a printer at home, let alone a photo printer. I do have DSL, which some say is not as fast as cable, but I've never had any complaints.

Anyway, I'm waaaaay behind now in 23 Things but am determined to catch up.

Reviewed Week 3 stuff since it's been so long since I last did it! Looked for more info on mash-ups but am still confused and don't find the sites too helpful.

Found out Jeri at CARO is almost as far behind as I am, so I'm feeling better. Misery loves....and all that.
