Finding bloglines was a new experience for me. I learned something new. I tried all the sites for searching for bloglines. The Google Blog search was too wide open for me. I did do a search and found my cousin's blog but it was hard to narrow the field to find a blog line I would be able to use. I liked the Topix.net and the Technorati . I found newspapers with feeds that should be very interesting.

Today I IMed with Michael from the Library Commission. I think IMing would be helpful if I had something to say. Now I am working on setting up bloglines and finding feeds. I couldn't find the icon to add the G.I. Independant to my feeds. I am amazed at all the technology that is out there that I would know nothing about if someone didn't tell me. How do people find this stuff? I really think newreaders will be great for personal news. I can't subscribe to or find the time to read four newspapers a day. This way in one spot I will have all the news from all the regional papers and national if I so choose. This will be a great way to keep up with news for the library.

For years I have been trying to get kids to quit IM in the library and now here we are learning to IM for the library. I guess over the years the thinking has changed on technology. It is nice to get an instant answer on IM rather than waiting for a reply.

I am finally starting to think this is fun. I am going back and posting comments and perma links on the Things I thought I had completed. I'm on a roll
I want to take more time to play, I have quilting fabric calling my name, a new hat I am knitting and felting, a new picture to embroider and alway a new book to read.
I am trying again to get this perma link mastered. Here goes.

I really don't know if I am doing this perma link right.
This is getting more confusing by the minute but maybe I can muddle through.

I have always considered myself a life-long learner however in the world of technolgy I do drag my feet. Habit number 6, use technology to your advantage might be the hardest to tackle.
