O MY Amazing sis!

STEVIA

Hello Out there....

Anyone interested in a Stevia Update? Have we all realized that sweeteners are just as bad as sugar...if you don't have a clue to what I am talking about....please check out the link to this product. Coke is planning a big campaign in 2009 to put this into their product....lets wait and see the outcome. But anyway it's worth creating a post on this subject.

Thing 29 -Scrapblog to Del Rio

Scrapblog is fun. I love doing this. I could spend days and night on my bed with my lap top doing this. I dream maybe i could be an artist like my big sis some day????
Right .....dreamin a little won't hurt anyone!

Thing #28- A tribute to my sister the artist

Thing #27

I have used photobucket for years ( those old days of remote linking....and I agree the format and site is one of the best around. Celebrate PHOTOBUCKET!!!!! yeah

Thing #26 Midis and Minis

Thing #24 Letters in Pop

I created an account in Pop but found the feature to be not exactly what I wanted. It would have been nice to put a brochure on the blog but that is not how it works. I like the idea of working from the web though.....it's like a lot of friends in the kitchen.

Hello my name is Ruby Ann

Hi,
I am the new personal trainer for this blog and I promise to be better than Madonna's personal trainer. My guess is that I can get you all looking like Madonna and Gwynneth in 4 weeks flat. Watch for my weekly exercises and please stop eating those donuts.

2008 is here!

Happy New Year Glitter Graphics

Another Thing-slideshows of libraries

Up and Beyond -Thing #24

With undue respect, working next to the blog team has had it's advantages.....Louisa did inform us of using Zamzar some time before all this blogging began in full force...due to patrons bringing in copies that would not convert with our center's pcs....so it's been a happy relationship with learning all these extras that really get down to giving excellent patron services.

Thing #23- Hello honey...I'm home!

It took me awhile....purposely. I wanted to savor every moment of this challenge. My thoughts about all of this are that is was an amazing journey through Library 2.0. I loved every moment of it. The practical points of it all are that I have already been able to use it on my job. I have been able to help patrons with downloading pictures, suggesting students to use on-line documents for sharing with their teachers. I suggested to a young student writer to use googledocs or zohowriter for her creative compositions because she then did not have to worry about losing or misplacing her flash drive.
I will challenge myself with the Seven1/2 habits daily, almost like a checklist in my mind now. It seems the more I learn the more I want to learn and I hope it never ends. My husband always said I could be a perpetual student.
I found Technorati dauting at first. Wikipedia was interesting and PBwiki along with surveymonkey will probably change the face of the earth very soon.
I plan on reviewing everything that I learned again and then once again. I would love to do 43 things also. I may do another blog too. This one was fun and if it came across badly...I had a good excuse....from Nutty Pecan...that's not really me! Fine tuning like a taut string instrument is my next goal...and I can't wait to get started again and start strumming.
Thank-you administrative staff Louisa, Michele, Barb and Carlton for giving us this chance to really put our heart and souls into something. It was a fun experience and kept me out of trouble ...at least for awhile.

Sincerely.....from the Pecan Podcast

Thing#22- Netlibrary

Well I am finally here at Netlibrary. I created an account and downloaded a few e-books, also I checked out the audio ones and am finding it very easy and interesting at the same time. I found some interesting titles...for example just off the top of my head put in 'butterflies' with an asterisk and found a great book I will eventually read virtually. I love the audio books and will use the portable media player (MP3) to transport this material especially on long hikes with my black lab.

Thing # 21- Podcasts

I used yahoo podcasts and techochild for locating podcast. I have spent the about two weeks listening to different podcast work. I used 'libraries' as a tag and have found out some interesting things about podcasting. On one cast, members can log-into the podcast network and be part of the 'live' show over the internet. Of course you need a library card and a password number to get in.

I have located some great podcasts for health and wellness and plan on downloading these all to my MP3 player very soon. I can't wait.

Thing # 20 You Tube- Bono & Pavarotti's Ave Maria

Dedicated to the Blessed Mother who always is there for us.

Thing #19

I used the short and the complete list to the award winning sites. I have found so much information here that I will keep this as a permanent link. It is so valuable that I have recommended it to family members. I have used Pandora for creating a music station on my laptop, Odeo and Yahoo podcasts for music and podcasting. I have logged into Peer Trainer for a good look at my accountability when it comes to healthy eating and exercise. Peer Trainer could work in a library setting to create an on-line community with fellow co-workers with regards to keeping fit and eating right. It takes time to set these up and work through the maze of knowledge and suggestions.
