WEEK 5--Thing 10, Thing 11 and Thing 12

This would be a lot more fun if you did not have to get an account with every aspect of this adventure.

I did play with the image generator. I could not find an image that I loved enough to upload. There is no imagination that comes close to the reality of me.

I have visited the Library Thing and included 5 books that my reading groups have recently discussed. http://www.librarything.com/catalog/rdonoway
They were very good reading.

Through Rollyo, I asked for a photo search. It led me back to Flickr. Rollyo says Flickr is almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing. I asked for fish, and came up with the London Aquarium. Pretty neat stuff.

WEEK 3--Thing 5 and Thing 6

Well, I had a bit of trouble with my blog. But, have overcome the difficulty and have actually uploaded a photo, from e-mail no less. Step by step.....

I actually changed photos. Lily is already a techie.

The best thing about Flickr is the huge number of photos available. It was hard to choose, until I settled on Lily, which was not a Flickr choice. Now, how do I insert this post into the proper chronological order? I do not know.

WEEK 4--Thing 8 and Thing 9

I just had a chance to learn about RSS feeds, which was supposed to have happened last week. Now I only wish I had the time to take advantage of the information that will be sent to the blogline. One day......

Merlin has a lot of good information about training opportunities. This site definitely merits further investigation.

WEEK 3--Thing 7

I set up my blog the first week, and now have it registered. I still need to get an understanding of a permalink. Then I will be ready to explore Flickr.

I am to mention anything technology related. So here it is.....I would like to get a web cam, so that I might have conversations with Lily, her daddy, and her mommy.

WEEK 1--Thing 1, Thing 2, Thing 3, and Thing 4

Here I Go!!!!

Yeah!!!!!
Another wonderful opportunity to learn....I am very excited!!

Of the 7 1/2 habits of a lifelong learner, I believe I am best at

#1 Begin with the end in mind--just think how much smarter I will be.
#2 Accept responsibility for my own learning--I have to allow myself to be smarter.
#3 View problems as challenges--this IS the only way to grow.
#4 Have confidence in myself as a competent learner--I AM completely able to learn new things.
#7 Teach/ mentor others--I just love to do this
#7 1/2 Play--learning should be fun

I will think about my learning contract.

I'll keep you posted---HA! HA!! :)
