Just For Fun

Okay, I finally found the best viddy ever! Many of you saw this a few years ago, but it is back! I couldn't remember the artist and it was impossible to find... until I checked my Myspace account. Maybe I should ditch FB for MS. We will see.

Week 6: Youtube

This is from one of the best movies ever. John Waters' Female Trouble. There are so many good lines in this movie, it is really difficult to choose. So many great clips too. However, most are highly innapropraite. I chose this video for all the snitches, tattletales, bad girls and Meatball sandwich lovers. Enjoy!

Week 5: Social Networking

Okay, let me just say that I have a love/hate relationship with social networking. Myspace was a blast a few years ago, it was then superceded by Facebook. I love being able to keep current with friends that I don't see often and don't hear from often. I love the games even thought they are addictive and evil. Pet Society, Mafia Wars, the list keeps going. I looove the quizzes too. I admit it. But, after awhile, it is much too much. I know I am not the only guilty of Mystalking and Facestalking ex-boyfriends, ex bestfriends and the like. I even added a ton of people from highschool just to see what they looked like now. (I promptly deleted all). It is totally embarrassing to do that, I can still feel the heat of my shame!

I am going to explore some of the other social sites. Maybe ones that are a bit more grown up, no games, no quizzes. Maybe there will be another post about those.

Week 4: RSS and Google Reader

Feeling Overwhelmed. More subscriptions to more information. I already do not have time to read my Simple Living Newsletter, or my updates from Readymade and Bust. I guess I can always look at it like the books and articles I have queued on WCL. I am feeling the pressure of information overload. Anyway, I did subscribe to Microsofts Clip Art and Media blog. I can always look at more clip art.

Worldcat Local

omgomgomg! I love it! I have created a personal WCL account and have created lists so I can remember everything I want to read in the future. I can even sort it in to different lists so I konw that one is for work, one for crafts, one for my dream house. This is great because I tend to have 50 different lists on paper going at any one time and they get so lost. eek! Now I don't have to worry about my "to read" list. I feel like such a geek, but I could die from excitement. I will have enough articles and books to read lined up to keep me busy for at least 3 years. Ok. I must go back and make more lists!

Week 3- wikitastic

I heart wikis. Plain and simple. I have done a lot of work on the Circ wiki and I have had a blast. It can be a little overwhelming and I made a lot of mistakes, but I think I have the hang of it now. One of the most useful things I did was linking the pages back to the main Circ menu.

ok. I must leave for Worldcat Local training immediately.

Adios!
