Wiki
Now I know what a wiki is. I've often found information on Wikipedia when doing searches. I especially like the Book Lovers Wiki that the Princeton Public Library created. It could be a very useful tool for reviewing videos.

Library 2.0
I read all of the perspectives twice. The second time wasn't any more interesting than the first time. I found "Into a new world of librarianship" the most informative and easy to understand.

7 1/2 Habits of Life Long Learners
It seems I was one of the bloggers who forgot to comment on this exercise. Using the computer is one of my favorite ways to learn. Habit 3 viewing problems as a challenge is one of my better habits. At times I think of it as a curse. There are some people who probably indentify with this. Habit 7 1/2 is the hardest. Taking time to play.
Technorati
This site probably needs a lot more time to explore than I have right now. I think it could be very useful if you want to explore blogs and the technology. I entered jazzyladylove's url and found her blog. Found my blog too but didn't claim it yet. That's for a day I have nothing to do but play on the computer.

Del.icio.us
Great site for someone doing a lot of research. I did a search on genealogy and recipes sites. Interesting but I didn't create an account.

Rollyo
I went to Rollyo and did some searches. I can see how it could be a good search tool for specific searches. I added a Rollyo widget searcher to my blog but didn't sign up for an account.

Generators
Generators can be fun but for some reason I kept having a problem copying and pasting the code. I finally got this one to work on YourGen.com after several tries on other web sites. I'm up to exercise 11.

RSS Feeds
I created an account with Bloglines and added feeds to Yahoo News and CNN. I thought Topix.net was easy for finding the news feeds. Now I know what that RSS Feed Icon is in Internet Explorer. I used it to add a feed to vindy.com.

Technology - Blogs
I've heard of blogs and seen a few blogs but didn't really understand blogs. Learning 2.0 is a great way to learn about creating a blog. I'm learning about pod casts, trading cards, posting comments in blogs and so much more I haven't explored yet. The pod casts are interesting how they can be created for a business or any website. I played around with the demo on Site Pal for some time. If I don't quit playing I'll never finish 23 things.

Third Post
Peanut was a good dog retrieving balls from the Christmas tree for me. The picture was taken in December 1998 when she was a year old. Peanut died this year on June 26th from bone cancer. She was a very special dog and loved visitors. The only visitors not welcome were cats. I know Peanut is a strange name for a Rottweilor but she was the runt of the litter when she was born and I started calling her Peanut. I created this trading card in memory of Peanut.

Second Post
I explored Flickr but didn't want to open an account. I used the upload tool in Blogger.
