rollyo

Each week, I keep getting smarter and smarter. This is a terrific way of becoming aware of just some of the possibilities out there. I can see where people in certain professions would love rollyo as a way of keeping up on the latest trends in their field.

library thing

LibraryThing may be my favorite "thing" yet. I read so much and can never remember a single title even a week later. To have such a nice list to refer to and to be able to refer friends to is fantastic. Now if only there was enough time to enter and organize everything.

on line generators

This week I created a Meez and had great fun with the different generators. I especially liked the sketch generator. It would be great for creating a very personalized coloring book for a young person (or not so young).

bloglines

While I'm pretty sure I understand the gist of RSS feeds, I'm not sure I get the whole picture of their usefulness. I think it might be because I'm not in the habit of checking any blogs or news sites on a regular basis. I did find it very interesting.

my favorite technology (for this week)

My daughter's IPOD wins this week. As she was playing her newest download through my car stereo using a cassette with a cord, I realized she was playing a song that I originally owned on 8 track. We sure have come a long way!

Thing 6

Today, I finished my explorations of Flickr. WOW!! By far, my favorite features were the maps. I zeroed in on a little town in southwestern England, and could have sworn I saw a picture of our aunt buying produce. Also, created a silly trading card and will be posting that here soon...maybe.
