23 Things - The Finale

10 or so weeks; 23 Things

There were times it was hard to fit it in to a normal workday routine.
But overall, it was worth it.

The week spent on digital images was probably one of the most informative sessions - and one that I will probably refer back to most often.
Goodreads and social reading - another good choice.
Stumbleupon - I love it.
Will I ever be a regular user of twitter? Probably not, but it's good to know that if I want to, I can.

Thanks to all who helped to create this introductory session to these internet tools.

The Last Week!... and Thing Number 23..

StumbleUpon

This is pretty cool..I have heard of StumbleUpon before, but never used it. So, I created an account (one more account, one more password), and started stumbling.

With reading selected as a primary interest, this site came up - it's a list of 623 books, made up by compiling and consolidating several "Top 100" book lists. For all those book list lovers, this is fun to browse through.

I can see myself using this often.

Time for...The Happy Dance!!!

23 Things: Week 9 (and counting)

I am a bit behind again - just getting to Week 9 - Apps....

And my guilty secret is exposed - I do not own a smart phone. I don't even own a non-smart phone. I don't have an I-pad. Or an android tablet.
I am woefully behind the times - a relic, a dinosaur, a throw-back. How will I survive?
The odd thing is I don't really mind.
But in the spirit of 23 Things, I will begin my things this week. Overdrive - well, I have used it on a desktop computer. I do own a Kobo. I do download books from NBPLS - does that count?

Now, the BiblioNB app - my trusty co-worker agreed to let me experiment with her phone. It works well. I like it. If I had my own phone, I would download (and probably even use this!).

Maybe soon..the tempation is certainly there.
