Going to Thing #15- be back to #14 Soon

Well, May i begin with the Iceberg connection. I thought that this was just the right thing for me to read considering I now have a love of the Penguin! In all reality Web 2.0 is all about change. AND lets face it, we all can ride the tide or be left sitting in the sand. Technology will keep advancing and people will follow. SO, my recommendation is we all better jump on a ship and sail away!

Thing 13- Del.icio.us

I was waiting for some food with this title! A little unsure of this one. I can see how bookmarking can help. I did though find some interesting things- Check out the research below on how texting helps teens Grammar!! WHO KNOW? :)

A Strong Command of Grammar
"Parents and teachers don't need to be concerned that this new medium is corrupting young people's grammar", said Sali Tagliamonte, a professor of linguistics at the University of Toronto. Tagliamonte added that she was "blown away" by the command of English, the creativity and the fluidity of language shown by the kids studied. IMing, cell phone texting and chatroom-speak are "an expansive new linguistic renaissance," the study says.

Thing #12- On a Roll

I am finally getting some of this! YAHOO! I will get to # 23- One way or another! But for now-- I am happy showing my stuff- rollyo! I am not sure what exactly I would use this for yet. But time will help me see- i think! Hope!

Thing #11

Well, it is time to find and save some books. I decided to use my favorite author as she got me through those trying times as a tween- Judy Blume! AND of course, the Bible. SO I should be good to go when I need a saving or two or three or --- lots!! :)

Thing #10- PLAY TIME

Well, I must say this was the funnest thing I have done so far in this learning adventure. Also realized though, just how time consuming technology can be. I made a symmetrical picture of my face using Funny face on the generator sight. this was pretty cool. I also made a cereal box of my own. Tried to make a little avatar of myself, and will link soon! I think I will be famous!

I made a little speech agent as well- Check me out!

Thing # 8 & Thing #9

I have heard about RSS feeds befor ethis but like so many others didn't really know what it was. I have since checked out many feeds. I have registered with Bloglines and now maybe can at least keep up with the news. :) Well, some TV junkie sites as well. :)

Thing #7 - Technology

I was looking over my "things to do" chores and found I forgot to write about teachnology. So here goes ....

Technology for the most part os a wonderful thing. At this point, I thinkk the world would literally be lost without it. The original creation for it though of time saving has actually become time consuming. Yes, it saves time in many area that we as humans use to do by ourselves. But it has opened up worlds of things no one ever thought possible. Just surfing the net, checking e-mail, looking for resources, etc. can eat up hours wihtout even realizing it. There are tones of things I would love to do using technology but literally can't find the time to work it in. I would love to file my pictures in some logical manner with the softwar program I have but can't find the time. Of course, not using techncology for this job was just as bad which explains the shoeboxes of old pictures in the house. hmmmmmmmmm, maybe we just need to create more hours in the day. Using technology of course to ake it happen! :)
