Thing 19

Podcasts: Viewed different podcasts and created and edited the Children's Poetry contest podcast for Dakota County Library

Thing 10

It was interesting to see how other libraries used Wikis. I've used them before, but not done any editing until I added something to the 23 Things wiki. Also signed up for a PBWiki account. However my inspiration for personal and practical uses usually come about a month or more after I've been exposed to the tool.

Thing 9

Collaborative Tools: I played around with Zoho. Again I found it unsatisfactory. But was more successful with Google Docs. That seemed easier to use. I can see times when this might be useful, but don't see an application for my job. I would choose Google Docs for some personal document applications.

Thing 8

Played around with Zoho---pretty clunky. Then used Picture Trail to create this slide show.

Thing 7

Communication Tools. I read about being more effecient with email, Instant Messaging and texting. Also looked at the Minitex webinar offerings. I'm learning texting with the new cell phone I just bought. Although I don't think I'll use it much, its fun to play around.
