23 Things: Google Docs
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/google-docs.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Wednesday, August 8, 2007. Woooow. Okay, for the first time since I started doing 23 Things, I've discovered a technology I was unaware of before that I think is totally and completely fantastic! The ability to word process online, ooh! Google owns my heart, truly. Clear, easy-to-understand layout, not a lot of clutter. In short, it's exactly what you need without a bunch of crap you don't. Once again, the Google empire has won over my heart. View my complete profile.

A Lifelong Learner Experience. Tuesday, August 14, 2007. End of the Line! Reflections on 23 Things. I do well with boundaries, so I'll start by answering the provided questions before I go off on rambly tangent of my own. What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey? I thought that Google Docs. And getting familiar with RSS feeds. Discoveries I found along my 2.0 Journey. How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals? For those of us who are already f...

http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/web-20-winner.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Wednesday, August 8, 2007. Okay, I hope it's not cheating for me to write about a site I was already familiar with, but I was so surprised and pleased when I clicked on the winners list. Of the Web 2.0 awards to find that one of my favorite sites, Pandora. Won top honors for the music category! It totally deserves it. The site originally started as the Human Genome Project.

23 Things: Technorati and Tags
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/07/technorati-and-tags.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Friday, July 27, 2007. I have to admit, Technorati. Is a lot less intimidating than del.icio.us. I actually kind of liked Technorati (which isn't to say I disliked del.icio.us, but you read my last post and know how it gave me heart palpitations at the sheer size). My favorite thing about Technorati by far is their search capability. No clue.) I'm not sure I like the idea of my blog being registered and made public for the whole world. I've been blogging for a long ...Is ki...

23 Things: E-Libraries and Downloadable Audio Books
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/e-libraries-and-downloadable-audio.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Tuesday, August 14, 2007. E-Libraries and Downloadable Audio Books. For this exercise, I explored Maryland Overdrive. As a PDF to my home computer. At first, I was excited about how easy it was to download the book and how quickly it was delivered, with no needing to go to the library and hunt down the book and take it home. Just click, wait five seconds, and boom, you've got a book on your computer. The problem came when I began trying to read. They don't even give out of ...

23 Things: Wikis in Libraries
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/07/wikis-in-libraries.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Tuesday, July 31, 2007. This has been one of the most interesting things for me to explore. I'm a fan of Wikipedia. To be honest, I never knew that a wiki was something independent of Wikipedia. I'd never even heard of a wiki outside of that website. I think that it's a really unique tool, and I'm not sure I've quite organized my thoughts on all the things it can do yet, so bear with me as I talk it out. Incorporates reviews from their patrons, but I have to wonder how they...

23 Things: Locating Podcasts
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/locating-podcasts.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Monday, August 13, 2007. Being the music junkie that I am, I've come in contact with podcasts before, usually in the form of interviews of my favorite musicians or perhaps album commentaries they recorded and released as "exclusive bonus material! For their website and message board subscribers. However, I didn't realize before now that podcasts are considered an audio or video file that is NOT music. Learn something new every day. Out of the Past: Investigating Film Noir.

23 Things: YouTube
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/youtube.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Thursday, August 9, 2007. Sometimes I wonder how the world existed before YouTube. I mean, where else could we find great Bollywood videos like this one. And funny commercials like this one. And wacky and hilarious homemade videos about men's bathroom etiquette like this one. Could you live without seeing videos like this? Yes Would I want to? From SNL. (Don't watch that one if you're easily offended! Neal Casal - " Eddy and Diamonds. Regina Spektor - " Samson. I am a refer...

23 Things: Sandbox Wiki
http://immodestlysliding.blogspot.com/2007/08/sandbox-wiki.html
A Lifelong Learner Experience. Thursday, August 2, 2007. This was an interesting activity. I expected the sandbox to be more organized and less chaotic, but then, it is. A playspace, and there are. A ton of beginners (including myself) poking around in there, so no big deal. I kept thinking.what if I change something that the original person doesn't like? How will anyone know which are my contributions and which were already there? In any case, I thought it was fairly easy to use, but as someone who actu...
