Thing 19: Hi! This is my first try creating a word document using Google docs. Wow! What a concept…and yet again there appears to be many things you can do with this package…with photos, calendars, etc. Will this do away with attachments in email…it appears to be a more efficient option, especially if the attachments require correspondence back and forth. The application I chose to use is exactly like the word processing software. I would like to try the calendar…it appears to be an efficient way to share a schedule for the library, etc.
Thing 20: I went to the short list of Web 2.0 awards. I like this list…a great place to know where to start when wanting the best of the best sites. I looked at the cooking, health, and google maps links. I needed to log in for the comiqs site. We were working on a graphic novel/comic strip project with 5/6 students at our school and I thought this would be interesting to investigate. We had the students using comic creator. These 2.0 sites are definitely more interactive and you can get a more “real” experience when you are involved in using these. I sent the short link web address to my work email. It is definitely something I would like to look at in more depth to connect to our library experiences.
