Had a good time playing with Wordle!
Made 3 different word clouds--had fun playing with the colors and fonts. :)
I have used tagging in Facebook for pictures and of course I have been tagged.
Usually to the most embarressing pictures people can find!
Oh yeah---this can probably be used for a work purpose too!

Wikis Part 1
I have to say I have heard the term "wiki" for quite awhile, but never really understood what it
was.
I liked looking at the Albany Library Wiki.
I could definitly see this being a useful way to communicate with a large staff.
In Lakewood it is hard to get everyone together to discuss things.
This might be something we could look into.
From staff meeting agenda to where we want to have our Christmas party--could work.
Also---I had no idea that OCL could be found on Wikipedia!

Picnik
What fun!!
I really enjoyed playing with this site.
I sort of felt like a mad scientist playing with a body.
Pictures and contrasts and colors--you could really spend hours on this.
They have seasonal imagines you can use too.
Saved a fun picture to my flashdrive!
Heh Heh

Google Docs
What would I use this for??
I think honestly that I would have to play around with it for awhile.
Is it better than Word or Excel?
Easier to use or more confusing?
Excel confuses me on a daily basis so---
Kinda sad I know, but I have come a long way.
Remember--as my kids think--I used to go to school with stone tablets and the invention of the wheel!

This is another networking site that I already belong to.
I like it.
I enjoy some of the inane things that the people that I follow put on here.
I have to say-one thing I don't like is sometimes you get inundated with too many tweets.
I decided to follow West Virginia University.
My son goes there and I thought I would get important updates.
But---I was getting like 30 tweets a day from them on stuff I didn't need to know so---
they were unfollowed! I show no mercy!
I also follow an actor I like--the bum hasn't been on since June. He's killing me!
Some people on these sites are just pathetic aren't they? lol

Finally--
Something I already know how to do!
Actually--I had been resisting going on Facebook for a long time. Friends and relatives were bugging me, but I felt that I did not have the time for another thing.
But--I gave in and created an account. I really like it.
I like that I can keep in touch with my cousins---they are all crazy and they make me laugh all the time with the stuff that they write.
I have reconnected with elementary school friends and kids I grew up with.
In a sad but true kind of way---sometimes I "talk" to my husband who is in the other room by IM-ing.
I love seeing everyone's pictures.
I do not like people sending me animals from their farms and crap like that!
Go on my account and look at my "Life on Mars Fan Gathering in NYC" pictures!

NetLIbrary
I don't think that I am a fan of this site.
When putting in different titles, I found that I would get books listed that had some of the title
in the description. Now--I may have been looking them up incorrectly. Or maybe I am just
tired trying to catch up in the challange.
Know what would make me feel better? If I could download a book to my computer and
listen to it while I was working! :)
Hey--It was worth a try!

WorldCat
Looked up the new Brian Herbert book--Winds of Dune.
Closest library to my home is BKY. It also gave me Clara B Worth School in Bayville.
I liked that WorldCat also gives where you can buy the book.
Amazon--18.47
Barnes & Noble--20.15
Better World Books--21.48
Looked up a book that I loved as a kid--The Jade Monkey Mystery.
WorldCat said that the closest library was OCL-TR, but when I looked it up we do not own a copy. So---what do you do with that?
