thing 20 social networking

social networking is not something that I would do on a regular basis but I can see where and how it can be a useful thing for some people. I know that Martha Stewart has a MySpace page and people visit her regularly. If you need to communicate with a large group of people then that is one way of doing it. what I like about these sites are that you can find information on just about anything that you are looking for. I went to Open Food Source and find a new site for recipes I am always looking for a new recipe.

thing #17

award winning apps: I like using Craigslist as a free community market place. I used it when we were moving to Longmont to sell items that I did not want to move. We had an old upright piano that was pretty heavy and belonged to my son and he was not moving it to California and I was not moving it to Longmont so Craigslist it was and I had five phone calls for it in less than half-an-hour it worked just as advertised. If you need it or want to sell it Craigslist is the place to look for it.

thing 14

I made a podcast followed directions but when it came time to put in on my blog I could not figure out how to get a url address to put it on so everyone can hear my book talk. Not as easy as it looks but I can see how you can use it on your school website. I would like to see it used in the classroom especially for kids with disabilities or those who are "challenged".

open space was fun and we are planning a trip to Orlando for spring break so i made a Google doc and sent it to everyone who was going with us to add or make agenda changes. Everyone was interested in helping me with my homework.

I liked working with wikis and I tried making one but got distracted but it was fun to look at wikis.
