Thing #23

I'm done!
And I got so excited about blogging that I set up a new blog-Likes and Dislikes, the digital version of my paper zine. Here it is: http://likesanddislikeszine.blogspot.com/
It is all the things I like and dislike.
I am much more excited and knowledgeable about Library 2.0 now. Before it was sort of a hazy idea, but it doesn't really exist until you participate in it. I feel more able to engage in discussions and debates about L2, and it's not as scary or as abstract.
My favorite things were: learning about RSS feeds, discovering and becoming addicted to del.icio.us, and learning to mess with photos. I've been telling everyone I know about these tools, esp. del.icio.us. I didn't really feel like I connected with others. It was nice to have two people comment on my blog, and once in a while I peeked at other people's blogs, but I don't really have time.
I guess I wasn't expecting to love technology this much. I've always kind of seen it as a hassle, or as unnecessary. I live in the 19th century. Seriously. I am a blast from the past. I belong at Hymie's Haberdashery. Getting sundries.
I thought the format worked great-although it was hard for me to figure out what library network I'm a part of, because my library isn't a public one, or one that people even know about that much.
I like that it was set up like a blog so people could see what blogs look like if they're just getting started. I also like the news emails. I would definitely do the 23 more things on a stick. 23 days later. 23 things redux. 23 things part II. 23 Things: The Final Countdown.
Here is your free advertising phrase: I accidentally learned I was having so much fun.

Love your "free" advertising phase"--a great description of what others have said, but yours is more succinct!

Congrats on finishing all 23 things---hope you stay tuned for more on a stick in fall or winter!

I ck'd out your "likes/dislikes" blog ... interesting & I plan to keep an eye on it ... and we can all learn something new from each other every day ... I'd never heard of "Bitch" magazine ... cool!

But you live in the 19th century? at your age? are you joking? if not I hate to admit technology has been part of my life/work for more years than you've been on earth! :)
