Nancy Pearl appeared on my desk one day so I put her on our puzzle table at work. (Yes, we do puzzles on our breaks).
I think flickr is awesome!! Now that I know how to use it, I can share my pictures with friends and family, and use its applications at work.

I like this picture because my ancestors are from Raeville, NE. My grandfather's uncle was a priest there. My grandparents first baby is buried at the cemetery by the church.

RSS Feeds

Loved the idea of being able to have all my frequently visited sites in one place. I can see where it will be great to use at work and home. It was alot easier to do than I thought it would be. I still have more "playing" that I want to do.

Twitter

I don't see myself using Twitter on a personal level. My life isn't that interesting to twitter about. I would probably only use it if it was some day used at our library for work purposes.

Blog

Setting up the blog was not too hard. The hardest part was coming up with a name and deciding which template to use. I have been using my "toolbox" to answer some of my questions.

7 1/2 Lifelong Learning Habits

The easiest for me is to create my own toolbox. I have a fellow employee who knows all this tech stuff and is always willing to help me. I also have a teenager who I can ask questions. They seem to absorb technology through osmosis.

The hardest is play. It is hard for me to find the time to play and my ancient computer at home is not working. My blog submissions will probably be short and sweet.
