Paloozahead


Create Your Own PaloozaHead - Visit Lollapalooza.com

I've been trying to make a Paloozahead, but the code was always wrong for some reason. It looks like it's going to work this time. This is my godson, Zachary. I sent it to his mom, but I don't know what she'll think of it.

Our Last Day with Coral

Tomorrow is our last day working with Coral. We're all really sad to see her go. I've personally learned so much from her, it's been a great experience having her here. I have to warn those of you in NZ that we've been working hard to convince her to stay! UCOL is really lucky to have her working there.

Anyway, this is how down we feel about her departure. I hope this will work if you click on the box, then hit start. If it doesn't, let me know.

Play Week

So now I'm trying some of the fun things. Here's a Warholized Molly:






Here's a badge I made for myself:


And a trading card:

Flickr

I am so behind on the 23 Things. I am going to try to get caught up tonight, but I'm also trying to get ready to go away, so I don't know how far I'll get. Too many things on the go.

I added some poodle pictures to Flickr, under the tags "poodle!" and "UCOL". I haven't taken any other pictures lately. I stupidly forgot to take my camera to Brianne's bbq.

Flickr seems pretty cool, although I still have a bit more exploring to do. I like this picture, although I really hope this doesn't happen to me any time soon! http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikelo/614958266/

The tagging is neat, because you can keep moving from subject to subject just using the tags. It's also interesting to see how many members the different groups have. It's hard to believe there are almost 1800 groups about libraries.

RSS Feeds

I'm set up in Netvibes now. I've added some feeds, including a cycling feed, some Toronto news, and a to do list. I'll add more as I find more of interest to me.

I'm also still trying to figure out how to add RSS feeds to WebCT successfully. Once I do, I'll make a Guide, like the ones Coral has been creating for faculty.

If anyone really likes crafty stuff, I just heard about a great place to buy fabulous stuff online. It was new to me, but you may already be familiar with it. The link is www.etsy.com. I'm thinking about setting up a small business to sell some of the things I make, so I've been checking out others' creations.

My other blog

If you want to learn more about me, check out my other blog, sheriffsinlethbridge.blogspot.com. It's not necessarily all that interesting, but there are some nice pictures of Lethbridge on it. Some of the landscape here is similar to pictures I've seen of New Zealand.

Library 2.0

OK, I've finally managed to create a new blog. I had hoped to use my existing one, but that seemed like cheating. So here's the new one, dedicated solely to Library 2.0 and 23 Things.
