23 things

I'm trying to finish up my 23 things and have done pretty well. Time (Summer Reading Club) has put me a bit behind, but I think I'v managed most of the "things". I have had trouble with only one so far, and that was embedding my YouTube video. I had it posted (well, the URL) but couldn't figure out how to embed it. I'll have to confer with one of my library experts! I've removed it from my blog, pending getting it done right!

I've enjoyed learning and trying the new technologies and that has done wonders for my confidence. I no longer feel too far out of the loop. When I got my FaceBook acct. in January, that helped me feel like I was starting to get "savvy" (well, a little, anyway), but it has been great to be led, week by week, through the other various options. This has been a great program and much needed by many of us. Now we'll know what's being talked and written about! (also the Tech Fairs that ACLA sponsored were great too) Ing's demonstration of a blog made me feel that I could do it too and that was helpful.

Anyway, on to download my podcast and I think I am done.

I'm taking a much needed family trip to the Laurel Highlands where we'll tour Fallingwater. It's such a beautiful bulding and this setting is spectacular.
