Thing 3

I have heard about RSS several times at different conferences and workshops, but have never fully understood what they were about until now!

I have started a RSS “Really Simple Syndication” - who knew that is what it stood for! I am having great fun with this but it could also be very addictive! I have got some of my favorite NBA sites on there, some fun sites and even some fellow 23 on stick bloggers, now need to look into some library sites too. I really do see the use of this one. Everything in one place – ya.

I was reading someone’s blog the web, they were saying they had up to 300 feeds. I can not image that many but we will see!!!!

This is fun. Learning something new all the time.

Thing 2

I just completed Thing 2 – it was really a lot of reading. But the video by Stephen Abrams was very interesting and I am a visual person so seeing and listening to the video was very helpful in understanding.

I'm very excited to continue on with the Things - some of them I am familiar with, and some I have barely even heard of. It's great to explore, and fun to be able to play and learn about things that could end up being utilized in some form in the library, and make things more user-friendly for the patrons.

First time blogging

This is my first time blogging. My oldest blogs all the time and the kids at my other boys school tell me that I should be doing it. I have never found anything that I really feel the need to write down for the whole world to see. But if 23 things on a stick helps me to learn more about all the new technology - I am ready to learn it.
