Doodle on!

Hi all,
I will probably end up using Doodle more than anything else. Again, I'm thinking in terms of communicating with the teen group.

If you have not checked out the Automatic Flatterer, you must. Trust me, it will make your day.

Delicious...a bit more time needed

I'm a clutter free freak. In other words, I need to have things very simple and pared down to the basics. I'm looking forward to using delicious for this reason. However, I now have the double the book mark stuff on my browser. I would like to figure out how to get rid of the old bookmark list....or maybe it doesn't matter. I just won't look at it!

Anyway, I love the cloud labels and could see us using this as a way to access our programs on the front page of the website. It might help me see which programs people are looking for! Will also want to use it for the teens.

Since I'm a hands on visual learner, its going to take some time for me to play around with it and brainstorm its possible uses.

Meebo yes, Meebo no

I have registered with Meebo, but need to find out how to embed my meebome on a webpage. I actually have a webpage on SparkPeople, a health and fitness site that I would love to be able to put it on. Just not sure if it will allow me to do this.

I would like to use meebo to communicate with our teen group, but will need to work with someone on the best way to do this.

Ahhh, future projects!

It's a WRAP!

Loved the first semester of this adventure! I can't say there was a particular favorite week. I appreciated the social network introduction, though, and am looking forward to exploring them in greater detail. I loved the last Michael Wesch video and am looking forward to sharing much of the Adventures in Technology with my mom and husband....two newbies to the whole technology thing. I have some ideas on ways to use some of the tools.....just used Flickr to send photos to one of our Storywagon performers, and am using a Wiki with Pat E. to communicate with other community members on an upcoming project with Hispanic Roundtable. I hope to offer our program attendees a way to comment on our programs via our website and blog; and, as our teen leadership group becomes more firmly established, we'll be exploring ways to use some of these tools together.

Incentive? A flash drive, please. Thanks!

Library Thing

Here's the link to my Library Thing. Again, the only problem I have with all these wondrous social sites is that I have no time to spend on them.

Facebook and MySpace

Trying to get through as many of the AIT trainings as I can before the weekend. You can visit my social networking sites if you want to, but they're nothing to look at! Besides, I can't seem to post a link. When I do, it never takes me to where I want to go. Sorry!

Flickr

Flickr's cool and I'm glad I can get some of these photos off my computer. Question, though....since I'll be uploading pictures from our more highly attended children's programs, is it necessary for me to get permission from EVERYONE? This could be a nuisance. Any way to get around it?
