Thing #22 - Staying Current

I have enjoyed learning many new things through this journey and there is much more that I want to revisit and go over and into deeper detail. The things that I have enjoyed most and will use alot are: Big Huge Labs, Image Chef, Picture Trail, Flickr, Facebook, and Youtube. I know these are the more "fun" topics that were covered but I know I will get alot of use out of them and that is the importance of learning something is the promise that it will be "used."

Thing #21 - Student 2.0 Tools

These are very useful tools students can access to assist them in preparing a research guide and timeline for projects as well as assisting in the planning and navigation of the research process. Nice to know about these tools.

Thing 20 - Books 2.0

There was sooooo much to grasp in this Thing. I've spent the better part of the week going in and out of the various sites reading up on whats out there...and its ALOT! The future of the printed book is certainly looking grim as we see "books" on hand held devices, phones, pc's, etc. But no matter in what form, the importance still lies in the desire and ability to read; when that dies we are all in trouble!
