Another Thing about Image Generators

Okay, it was really fun! The generator blog had some really neat things. You could generate images, jokes, poetry--all sorts of things. The problem that I had with most of them is that I could print off the image/joke/poetry/whatever, but couldn't save or copy. So I have nothing to show for all of my hard, hard work. It's a crying shame.

Fun.

Image generators are fun. The generator blog was especially fun to play at.

Playing

Okay, I think I'm just not ready to settle down with any blogs or RSS's out there. I'm playing the field, having lots of fun, having flings with all kinds of blogs and sites with RSS's. Great. I found lots of celebrity gossip blogs (Joey McIntyre has a new kid on the block!) and sites with the latest news on health and nutrition. I tried both technorati and topix for blogs and news feeds to find this stuff. But am I ready to be serious about reading any of them? Absolutely not. I can always find more like them. Or not, which would be fine.

my bloglines story

Okay, so about a year ago (maybe 2, I can't remember) I started a bloglines account because it was "the 2.o thing to do" and, you know, I'm hip with that. I had about 15 feeds, which I checked religiously for about a week. And then I had't checked them again until this week because, you know, I'm hip with that...again. There were about 6,000 new entries. Luckily you can dump them all with just a couple clicks to tidy up your account. Now I have only 10 feeds. I plan on checking them and dumping all the updates sometime around 2010, or when I need to feel 2.0 hip again.

Chocolate Winner!

Yay! Thanks for the fun contest, fun in the library. I was very determined to win, and smoked the competition...well, I don't know if anyone else participated. But it was fun...in the library. We work with such interesting people!

The image is of the new $25,000 chocolate dessert. I did not win this. But the truffles were quite lovely!

Learning 2.0 begins

Hi! So I've tried this before, and feel somewhat 2.o literate. But I'm looking forward to some of things I haven't tried like posting on Flickr, editing a wiki, or using LibraryThing. It should be fun as long as I can keep up!
According to the 7 and 1/2 lifelong learning habits I should establish goals for learning. This is the hardest thing for me, but I do think it is important to have goals and have motivation for a project. So what do I plan to get out of this? A fabulous flash drive...time to "play" at work...more experience working with 2.o applications that I haven't tried...the chance to win an ipod...a chance to engage in new ways... Is there more to this that I'm missing?
