"Fairy tales tell, as their labels imply, Stories of magic, of creatures that fly, With giants and dragons and ogres and elves, And inanimate objects that speak for themselves, There's romance and danger and plotting of schemes, There's good guys and bad guys and some guys in-between, A fairy tale also reveals some sort of truth, The perils of choices we make in our youth."

#23 Is This Really The End?

WOW, what a ride.

Learning Library 2.0 has been a really great experience for me. There has been so many new and different discoveries that I never new existed.

A lot of internet uses just think of it as a source of knowledge, looking up answers to questions we ask, but it is more than that. It is a world not only of knowledge but of creativity, communications, experiences and loads of fun.

Is this the end? Definitely not, I am sure that the experiences and knowledge I have discovered in this journey will be of use not only in the workplace but in anything I do. Example joining the scrapbook wiki I found or using flickr to share my pictures and even using my discoveries on creating my own blog on scrapbooking. A friend and I had created a blogspot but I didn't know anything about blogging and so I left it for her to keep updated and to work on, but now we can share the experience together.

Another area that I will use quite a lot is del.icio.us, a central spot to keep my bookmarks (how many times I have been somewhere and tried to remember a website to share with someone or sent it to my hotmail, :-) but not any more).

I have shared my experiences with my children and they have learned new things too and my son has seen me have so much fun and learned so much that he is thinking of having a go at the 23 things for himself.

#6 Flickr Fun

Flickr had me baffled for a while, wasn't sure if I liked it or not. Still not sure. But I have uploaded quite a few photos. Last lot of photos I added are photos of our Heath Road Library which I have put into the blog as a sort of slide show. This is called "Build a Badge" which is a tool found in the upload photos section. I like this effect.

#5 Flickr "Ready to stand...."

"Ready to stand...."
"Ready to stand....",
originally uploaded by disney_dreamer700.
Flickr, interesting, still feeling my way around learning new things about it. I have uploaded photos and had made them private. But have decided that I would change it to public as they are only photos of my puppy (well not such a puppy any more - she is 9 years old).

So as Ariel would say "ready to stand..." so I have taken my first steps creating this calender with fd's Flickr Toys.
Hopefully the first of many.
