RSS & Merlin visited

Today I visited to see if RSS had received the feeds I put on yesterday as the site had problems and shut down. I was pleased to see the feeds and enjoyed reading several of them. I'm intrigued by the gaming oportunites to all libraries and their customers to join a free gaming tournament. I wondered if the teens and early 20"s would be interested in this and how it was made available and if it was made available at BCPL. I've enjoyed this but wonder how often I'll get to check this sight. I am getting help to put this on my blog.

At home we've signed on to skyp in order to communicate with many friends , we have overseas. We are especially glad to be able to communicate with our friends from France in Japan. We still have to get a headset with microphone to make it work more conveniently.
I feel spoiled by this type of technology.

Flickr

Sure enough I find it challenging to keep up with blogging and Maryland 23 things. Today I went into Flickr. i registered . I brought up photos by downloading them to the desktop and then uploading into flickr. I gave the photos tags and descriptions. I'm not sure what to do with them now that they are in flickr but maybe that's next.

Thing #2 71/2 things observations #2 71/2 things

This will be fun and I don't mind playing with it. The toughest things will be having confidence and keeping up each week or each day. Here we go with trying some other steps. Accepting responsibility for my own learning is a strength where having confidence is a weakness.

Goals: Become aware of technology and become comfortable using it.
2. Time and not growing up with technology
3.
4. Resources: Library, friends, books
5. first do 23 things; then go back and revisit each when complete and have time and need to use it.

This is my contract which I signed.

Address for blog

I once again had difficulty getting into the blog but here we go. I set up a blog address:www.giraffe2.blogspot.com. . This is easy to access and I discovered that one is for the public to access and to add to my blog I must go into blogger.com. I used the name giraffe 2 because I collect giraffes. they are a symbol of peace. They are up and Lookin up is what I need to do daily.

starting MD 23

My fingers are sliding on the keys because due to illness in the branch, the keyboard has been disinfected.

My first time and day with blogging has proved eventful. After writing , the first blog I could not get back in to change or add to the blog. A co worker helped me to realize that I will need to keep records on how to sign in to all these activities. Each will have a different password--etc.

Now I will attempt to add a picture.

Keep looking up!

What up:

Pikesville's new ceilings are up
Wires are hanging from some ceiling

Goldfinch are up at home!

The sun is up and radiant!

God is up!
