to read my ramblings about technology. Tech can be great or it can be the pits depending on how all the gear is working.
I've been visiting other blogs as well. I get a kick out of some of the names of blogs and wonder about the stories behind them. I comment to a few posts, but mostly I just read & enjoy.

FYI....there is a great article about the "23 Things" in the October issue of School Library Journal!!
I just finished blogging about some genealogy related topics having to do with technology. 2.0 has opend a new world for those of us who like to share family info.

I tended to go on and on about loving technology on "Thing 11." I often wonder how I got through life before learning similar "Things." A few of the new ones are growing on me as well!

Thing # 11- Technology is great when it works. Read my blog about this at:

It is incredible at the level of comfort some students have in using technology. It is disheartening to see the big gap among students and their level of technology skills

I enjoyed reading the other participants' blogs about technology. Here is my technology blog: http://vc-vcsblog.blogspot.com/2008/11/thing-11-blog-about-technology.html
I read all 13 comments above mine & found myself nodding in agreement to most. Commented on 2 of them. Here's my blog on technology.

Mike Sauer's comment to kathysings's worry about too many user IDs & passwords is very pertinent. Last week I nearly ended up with an old wrench blog post on Kilgore 4 U because I lost track of which I.D. blogger thought I was using.
What can I say? Technology just for the sake of technology does not really appeal to me. I like it when I can really see how it can be applied.
Here is my blog on technology.

Learning about the "Things" is a good idea but also time-consuming & stressful.
Okay -- so I'm not a convert yet....

My blog about technology Be sure to watch my voki also. That was fun to create.
books4york,
You're not the only one. I've been known to do that several times especially in Blogger in which you don't need have different logins for different blogs.
Liked reading all your thoughts on technology. Hears my post http://t-beyondthemargin.blogspot.com/2008/11/lets-talk-tech.html
I wrote about a few things that annoy me.
http://kitschylib.blogspot.com/2008/11/thing-11.html
They use to tell us in school that techology doubles every 10 years. The progress I have seen from the first computers to phones that are mini computers is amazing. I never dreamed that I would have a computer in my house or one that you could carry around. My technology learning has come a long way. I once got my kids laughing when I asked them what a cursor was.
My post about technology (which is also a response to some of the other posts and comments as part of this project) is at http://www.travelinlibrarian.info/2008/11/thing-11-blog-about-technology-or-where.html
Blogging has helped our family keep in touch.
Just when you think you have it figured out they go and change it on you.http://danaslearning.blogspot.com/
For all your bloggers, if you need a laugh today, check out my blog site. I uploaded the picture of me in front of the new library sign on my blog page. Can you guess it is Halloween. Look Michael I remembered what I learned,(didn't even use a cheat sheet). this 2.0 stuff is starting to become fun.

Technology, what can I say??? It is awesome and awful, fascinating and frustrating, useful and useless. See more of my blog at http://kathysbookshelf.blogspot.com
I meant to throw this in somewhere in Thing 11 -- at last spring's MPLA / ULA conference, one of the presentations was about Office 2.0, the concept that web applications could totally free one from a fixed base of operations.
Using web mail is a first step; a remotely hosted web site with "edit from anywhere" capability is high on the list as well.
In a library, who is doing real-time circulation from a handheld portable wireless device (imagine freedom from the circ desk so you could wander the building, help folks in the shelves & check stuff out to them right then & there).

Thank you for creating this way for library workers to learn about new technology. It's great to be able to do it when I can make the time!
http://melniel.blogspot.com/2008/11/thing-11.html
Technology is great and I thought I had a handle on a lot of it but now I realize my kids know SO much more than I ever did.
Mostly a rant: http://troglodyte-librarian.blogspot.com/2008/11/thing-11-blog-about-technology.html
I enjoy reading comments from others. I find myself learning more from each one...I see others lost and then accomplishing a goal so I know I can also reach my goal.

If you have a few hours to spare to read my ramblings about technology they are posted. I had to stop myself from going on and on.
I think a many of us have mixed feelings about technology. I know it can be a blessing and/or a curse; depending on me, the day or the particular "thing" I'm doing. My blog says quite a bit about how I feel at midnight and technology

I'm really appreciative of the chance to be able to catch up with what is "out there" available to us, even though I may never have the time to use it all.

On my Blog there is a very good looking librarian who speaks and bats her eyes at everyone. I think she's me but I really don't bat my eyes like that. I'm not that good looking either...sigh. I really had fun with the Voki and think everyone should make one. I am headed off now to plant a few coments on various posts. I have enjoyed reading them. Thing #11 is done. Marie and I are catching up a little bit.

I did leave some thoughts on my blog about technology but they aren't worth much I fear. I am enjoying this though.

Technology is great no matter how you look at it. Thing #11 is now finished.
http://marieloveslibraries.blogspot.com/2008/12/thing-11.html
I think,like most things technology is a mixed blessing. More details:
http://liziej.blogspot.com/2008/12/thing-11.html
As I said in my blog I want to get to the point where I think of technology FIRST to solve issues, not old tried and true ways.
A few thoughts about technology are at http://einekleinemusik.blogspot.com/2008/12/technology-few-thoughts.html
I blogged about how everything we do,the mundane everyday things such as taking out the trash, hs been influenced by technology in one way or another. Read more at http://tiffanylearns20.blogspot.com/2008/12/thing-11-thoughts-on-technology.htmleven

Posted a blog about the lack of Oneness I see with Library / Web 2.0. Sorry if it comes across as cranky. I do like some of this stuff. There's just a lot of other stuff that goes along with it that doesn't thrill me as much. http://thecoreysthoughts.blogspot.com/

There just isn't anything new about the idea of technology. AND, when new technology quits coming along, we'll all be dead.

#11-I love technology. It allows you to be as creative as you want to be. The biggest problem is finding the time to get into everything out there. I got side tracked on this question. I created an avatar using voki. This is awesome. Does anyone know if this will work on a Mac.?
I love technology, but sometimes I despise it...read my blog at:

Hmm. I thought I had posted my comment, but it isn't here. So if this turns out to be a duplicate because my first comment was in transit, my apologies. Here are my thoughts on technology.
And here's what I called Thing# 11 1/2, a postscript to my thoughts on technology.
Having a blast learning neat and fun things using Web 2.0 technology.

I'm so happy that #11 was an easy one but I have to back and check out that talking message thing. (viko?)
My apologies to my English teacher . . . it appears I keep leaving out words but my keys just keep sticking.
Can't imagine what would happen if it all went away! http://nebraskalearnsbksrgr8.blogspot.com/2009/01/thing-11.html

Loving all that I'm being introduced to! I would like to help one of my second grade teachers. She wants to conference with a classroom in Alaska and Hawaii. We have simple technology, I was hoping for some ideas/advice...

I liked Flickr because I could
use it for personal photo sharing with family.
