Post script

The Palm Beach County Library Association (PBCLA) has a nifty new website, which can be found at http://pbcla.info. Thanks to Carol Bean (NCR) for her help in getting it set up!

Fin

Whew! I've managed to finish the 23 things with a whole 45 minutes to spare (to be eligible for the mp3 player drawing, that is!) Yay.

This 23 things project has been a lot of fun. In addition to getting to "play" at work, it was interesting discussing various web 2.0 topics with co-workers, and learning about several web 2.0 applications that were new to me. I especially enjoyed the web 2.0 awards list, and I'll be spending more time visitng the links offered there.

Thanks, PBCLS, I couldn't have done it without you.

why doesn't overdrive love my ipod?

Overdrive was great while I was using a creative zen micro mp3 player. But after upgrading to an ipod nano, alas, I had to return to checking out books on CD from my local library.

Overdrive has a nice selection of audiobooks, but please, Overdrive, can't you make friends with Apple?

Podcasting and cleaning

Ok, seriously, if it weren't for podcasts, my house would never get cleaned. All it takes is a quick trip over to NPR's podcast page, and after downloading the latest This American Life, Voila!! My floors are mopped, laundry is done, and the yard is mowed! It's like magic. Thank you, NPR.

Zillow blues

Zillow is a terrific web 2.0 tool. You can use it to find out what comparable houses in your town are worth, or to find out what houses are for sale. But Zillow was a lot more fun when housing costs were rising, rather than falling!!!

Library book letter


Recently, a letter written on ruled notebook paper was found inside a children's library book.

To summarize, it said:

Dear library,

Thank you so much for letting me borrow this really awesome book.  Sadly, I now have to return it.
