Thing 7

      Maybe they'll do a "round 3"    

Thing 6 Online Image Generators

 I'm getting really carried away with this one and would have a hard time 

leaving this if I were a student in need of creating something.   There are so many possibilities and so many ways to 

personalize and symbolize your work.  Every part could be special, containing hidden meanings and messages.  A real fun "Thing".  

Thing 5

                

This is pretty neat.    I 'm not sure if  dragging and dropping was the acceptable

way to do this but it worked and looks great.   A good way to draw attention and make

work more eye catching.   In my opinion,  in small quantities it would draw you in to want to

finish reading what it spells out but I'm guessing too much would not be a good "Thing".  

I like the way this makes each letter or number unique,  yet inclusive.   Again,  I liked this.

Thing 4 Flickr

This is one of my own photos that I uploaded from my iphoto.  These are Hollyhocks I was in awe of.   Not just because of their beauty but because I gathered the seeds from my Mom and Dad's which makes them very special.   This was a proud moment : )  This would be nice to pool all sorts of images together

but to me it also seems like a lot of extra work.   I hope to get through many of these posts

but do not feel that I will get the full appreciation toward library usage that I should.  

I will instead use this as a chance to navigate and have fun  because I don't think I will make the deadline.

Thing 3

I tried Google Reader for RSS feeds. For me it would be useful for keeping up to date with something like updates in certain laws or events or news that is ongoing.  Maybe I didn't

get far enough into this but that's what I found.   I currently use Google Alerts to alert me whenever a chosen topic is sited in the news.   That saves a lot of time browsing and it

comes directly into my e-mail and it's something to look forward to.
