I really like LibraryThing! I could spend a good deal of time there. I've got some of my favorite books on my catalog and will be putting lots more. Wow...I'm really learning some great stuff here!

Thing 9 - more feeds
I enjoy finding feeds, but still find it a bit frustrating when I want to add one and a window opens with a bunch of gobbley-goop on it. It happened more than several times. I did, however, find some interesting feeds through services that I found with a google search.
thing #8 - RSS Feeds
I really enjoyed this exercise. I found so many great feeds and I'm sure I will find a whole lot more. It's great to have all this information in one spot. Thanks for this lesson!
Thing #2 - 71/2 Habits
The easiest of the 71/2 habits for me is #2 - Accept responsibility for your own learning. I'm trying to finish my degree and at the present time am taking a class toward that goal. With two jobs it will take me 5 years just to finish the last two years of a Bachelor's degree, but I have to keep positive and know that I am chipping away at it with each class I take.
The hardest of the 71/2 habits for me is #3 - View problems as challenges. I'm having a hard time with that. I just found out that I did terribly on my midterm and beginning to feel as though I can't do this. The only reasonable thing to do is to keep at it...so I am. But, the mental aspect of it is very difficult.

Thing 21 - Podcasts
I didn't enjoy the podcast experience. I am a visual person and wanted to listen to the travel podcasts. This didn't work real well for me as I wanted to see what they were talking about.

Thing 20 - You Tube
The first video that caught my attention is the one that I want to share with my library co-workers. It involves a group of young men who go about getting their pants on in new and creative ways. From swinging into them from the seat of a playgroung swing, to jumping into them, to backflipping into them. This video pretty much shows my level of entertainment.
Wow...I think I actually may have figured out how to make a link to the blog!
