Flickr

Wow! Flickr is AMAZING! Photography is a big hobby of mine. I have friends in The Netherlands who share my hobby. Sometimes we send pictures via email to one another. Flickr is a much better way to share!

I can see how it would be really easy to fill up your free space on Flickr. Next time, I am going to check and see how much it costs to upgrade.

Most of my pictures I wouldn't care to make public. However, when I have a little more time, I might investigate doing that. I also want to search for others with similar interests. I did go look at the librarian's group. Pretty diverse!

My blog and avatar

Setting up the blog was easy!

I think the hardest thing about setting up my avatar was remembering to save the changes after I changed clothes, backgrounds, etc. And, I had to add the HTML space to the webpage.

7 1/2 Habits

I think the habit that is most challenging for me at this point is PLAY, especially as it relates to technology! I am so busy learning each and every day at work and using technology throughout the day that I find I have little time to play with and learn new technologies in the evenings. The little bit of time I have I am choosing to spend on my "other hobbies".

Possessing 7 of the 7 1/2 habits have helped me throughout my life. I believe I am a good example of a lifelong learner. While my goals have changed, I have always had one! :-) I have been to college at three different times in my life and have two very different degrees. Inbetween the two, I spent several years in educational technology. Mentoring and "cheering on" teachers on my campus with technology is a favorite pasttime! Once I get over the initial shock/discomfort of a problem, I usually see and meet the challenge! This blog is a perfect example!

Wow! This was easy!

So, I assume this is the first of my "23 things"! It was easy. Now, I need to figure out what exactly it is that I have to share with the world.
