#7 (Week 3) Technology

Technology sure can make some things easier, but it also can eat up a lot of time playing with the different things. It's fun to play and I am glad I am doing it during the summer.

I have seen some really nice blogs with lots of great links. It almost seems like reinventing the wheel to create my own blog with useful links. I am hoping to be able to use some of this technology in the classroom as I may not be in the library in 07/08.

I don't know if this counts as a mashup, but I thought the caption maker was interesting. I think students would love to see their pictures as wallpaper on library and lab computers with captions!

#5 (Week 3) Explore Flikr

Well, I am finally getting back to 23 things. I managed to use my yahoo avatar as my budy icon on Flikr... posted three pictures... it was pretty user friendly. I had more trouble trying to edit out the faces in the library pic than anything else! It came out pretty ugly, but hey, it's a library picture. I REALLY appreciate being able to take this tutorial this summer!
