Thing #17 ~ SandBox Wiki

It was very easy to add and entry to the Wiki. I was confused about the reliability of Wiki's. I thought they were very secure and trustworthy soures of information. A co-worker explained how easy it is to post an entry in Wikipedia. I was amazed at how easy it is to post something you believe you are knowledgable about. I know I always thought Wikiedia was like the dictionary..I know ~ duh....but anyway I learned something new. I also know to find the source behind the so-called info before I trust it now.

Thing # 19 ~ Web 2.0 Awards List

I searched through the best of the best web 2.0 websites. I love that they are all located in one webpage!!!! The website that I loved the most was www.43things.com. NO ~ its not the same thing as what we are doing right now....lol. The thing that caught my eye was the fact that you can find out what everyone else is looking for or wants to do or go in their life. You quickly find out that what you are looking for is what many many many people are looking for.... what to do with their life....what they want to try...and where they want to go. The website has tags that break down certain subjects and travel spots as well. It's a really fun and relaxing website that you can just sit back and surf.

Thing # 20

I have already been to the youtube website but..... I had no idea how easy it would be to post a video on my blog. It took less than 5 minutes. I really like the youtube video I posted about the raccoon. I had a pair raccoons at my old house. Raccoons get into almost as much trouble as I do......almost.

Thing # 14

I LOVE Technorati!!!!!! I will got to this site all the time. It has everything all rolled into one huge website. You can search anything and everything and find at least several blogs related to what you want. Just to check out how it worked I searched "Southern Maryland". It came up with hundereds of blogs of people talking about living here in So. MD. How cool is that? Ok I need to get out of my camper (long story :-))a little more......

Thing # 12

Thing # 9

Who knew all these "Library Blogs" were out there????? I kinda feel like I'm behind on technology right now.......
