23 At Last:)
Well this has been an interesting experience that I may not done had it not been put to us as a challenge...I have learned a lot..At times it was easy..but had I not had help from my co-workers..(Especially Debbie Ruth who cheered me on the entire way..Thanks Deb:)I wouldn't have made it!!!
Netlibrary
I opened a account and listened part of "Sisterchicks on the Loose"...I can see this being helpful to someone who's hours do not allow them to visit the library when it is open...I like to listen to books on cds,but usually when I'm driving ...I don't think that I would like to spend my time sitting at the computer listening to a recorded book..
Technology-Related
I really enjoyed MEEZ...It just boggels my mind that you can do sooo much with this...Creating an Avatar was FUN:)Library Thing was fun to...
Podcast
Podcast I looked @ several and think maybe this would be okey if you liked being on the internet at all hours of the day...But it's not something that I think I would use..
You Tube
This is me finishing 23 things:)I liked this You Tube...The hardest part for me was finding a password that hadn't already been taken...
Lulu
I like this site it allows you to create photo albums of say family events,publish manuscripts by uploading the information or even create training moduales...
Zoho Writer
This is a test to see how Zoho really works... I think this would work well if I had something of interest to write about...Right now I'm just trying to finish 23 Things..I understand the convience of being able to access this program from anywhere..:)

Sandbox
This was suppose to be fun...I found it cumbersome and not much fun..I logged in but I'm not sure if my post was actually created...:(
Wiki
What is this thing called Wiki? Wiki is Hawaiian for quick. A wiki allows anyone the ability to take a part in the creation and editing of web content...I can see this as a useful tool in perhaps a family genealogy blog...

Technorati
I found some interesting easy to lose weight tips on a You Tube video titled How to Lose Weight the Easy Way...I'm not sure that I would nornmally have the time to spend looking up things on this program on a regular basis but it was interesting to see what was available..
Merlin
I liked this site and even found an interesting blog which had several articles on history of Sandusky,Ohio...

Library 2.0
I have read several articles at Library2.0. I agree that technology is an important part of todays library but I also realize that not everyone who visits them is gunho about it ...Many come to brouse the shelves for new or old books of interest,talking books,attend or sign-up for programs which we at HCPL are very fortune to have to offer our patrons, and the list goes on & on...Our Friends Groups,Patrons & employees play a very large part in why our libraries will not sink like a canoe without a paddle...

71/2 Habits
I found the program on 71/2 Habits very informative...It does seem to make learning new technology easier when it is broken down into steps...Settings goals is easy but I have difficulty with Creating Your Own Tool Box...It is hard to give myself permission to follow through with this learning adventure

Intro to Technology
Wow what an eye opener the Tech Fair was on June 13th...It was good to get the overview of what all those little hand held gadgets, that so many people are using on the trains ,actually contain. Not only do they have music, but all sort of things of interest...
My goal is to learn to figure out how to use one of those...Wouldn't that surprise my adult children??
