I was trying to actually put a photo of the kitties on my blog. It didn't work. So I still have a few things to learn about making this blog look the way I want it too.

Here I am at the end of 23 Things. There are a few things I just skimmed through and really want to go back and work with. Flickr is one I think I will use quite a bit now that I've got 23 Things out of the way. The favorites wikki was a lot of fun. I'd like to do some more of that.
All in all 23 Things has been great. It opened up a whole new world for me. Some of it I'll leave where I found it. Some of it I'll really use. Who knows, some of it that I think I won't use might end up being my favorite stuff someday.

Downloading e books - Setting up an account is fast and easy. The computer I checked the ebook out on has all the necessary software, so the process was super easy. I had actually downloaded one before I even realized it. Again, I'd much rather hold the real book in my hands and read it curled up someplace quiet. But for folks that would rather be in front of a computer screen than anywhere else, e books will be welcome technology.

I just checked out some podcasts. Seems like someone who always needed to be listening to stuff would really like podcasts. I'm not that person. A book, quiet, and a cup of tea are what make me happy. Back to the podcasts. Pretty much anything a person might be interested in seemed to be covered.

Today I explored Lulu, under the award list for books. I found a cookbook by a serial killer. Hmm. That's crazy. But interesting to me, as I read lots of mysteries and cookbooks too.
So I did find that awards list useful for myself and I think it would be useful for regular library use too.

The on-line word processing is fantastic for people who use public computers. We've got an online calendar for our branch which seems to work well. Everyone has access to it from home or work.
