Lesson 4B

I think Flickr is going to take some getting used to to navigate around in, but creating a trading card could be fun to share with others. I did have some trouble putting the pictures on a map, still not sure it's working quite right. Just takes time to work with. Since I am the lone librarian around here, time is some what of a premium.

Lesson 4A

Hey there. I have set up a few pictures of our library at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bisonlibrary. If anyone wants to try it, give me a holler what you think.

Lesson 3

Hey, lesson 3 wasn't too bad, though I still have to do some "tweeking" to add a few web-sites. I can see where it will be very useful to check out all the librarians who are working on 2.0 Challenge instead of spending all the time going to each individual name, click on that, then read each one. I liked searching Google Reader much better, it seemed to be easier to navigate through. It was great to get the news, sports, and updates from libraies. I can see where teens who like to work on computers would enjoy RSS.

Lesson 2

This is my very first time at setting up a blog and I am hoping to gain experience and learn how to get the word out; receive input from others and gain knowledge about how to do this. In other words: I'm a rookie! I like working on the computer and learning new technology, so hopefully this will work out for me.

7 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners

In the 7 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners, I gues I would have to say I am learning Number 3- viewing problems as challenges. With the library struggling the way it is, this problem has given me quite a challenge and so far I have dealt with it as much as I can. Fighting with town board trustees is another problem/challenge, but must continue to deal with them and move on. Guess that's my thoughts for now.
