Thing #23!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am finally on Thing #23. I liked the blogging, Flickr, posting videos the best. Though I don't think they were the easiest...

I guess this "journey" has exposed me to different types of things on the Internet, some of which I was aware of and most of which I was not. I feel a little more techie as a result.

I felt like I had to do some of this at home because we only have 1 computer with speakers in the back. That was annoying.

I would be open to doing another discovery program, depending on the topic.

Thing #22

I feel that going to the Overdrive training given by Didi Morganti made me want to use Overdrive more in the future. I am excited that it'll be compatible with I-Pods in January. I like the fact that you can also download movies and music, in addition to books.

Thing #21 Podcasts

Okay, so I put NPR the Diane Rehm's show onto my Google Reader and also NPR books on Google Reader. This was perhaps one of the few non-frustrating tasks thus far. I did go to podcastalley but was rather offended by some of the content so I chose not to explore it too much.

Thing #20 3rd times a charm

Okay it took me 3 tries and some frustration, but I finally got some YouTube stuff on this blog! The first is my college choir director on the right talking about their Christmas concert which I always miss because I'm in SA and it's in Seattle. The second is a promotional commerical for Family Ties TV show.

Thing #19

For Thing #19, I explored Craigslist. I narrowed it down to the San Antonio area and looked up stuff that I was interested in. This included vacation home rentals, DVD's/movies for sale, and collectibles such as depression glass. I enjoyed doing this exercise and probably could have stayed on it longer. I also liked that the site had warnings to meet in a public place, tell friends, bring cell phone when meeting the seller.
