Wikis

I am sooooo mad at myself! I made it every week getting the assignment done on time until the last week! That would only happen to me. I have been super stressed and overloaded with school assignments since the semester is wrapping up. Anywho...I did the wiki assignments and had some fun with them. I had already created a wiki for a previous week (I would have to go back and look at what it was for) so I explored the in's and out's then. I made some changes to my personal wiki page, but did not edit any others because I did not really have anything to add!(Don't want to cause any confusion...) I did my wet paint assignment too and shared some of the frustration I feel at fouling up the last week! But here we are at the finish line...I was just lagging a bit because it has been a hard, long race... (whatever it takes to make me feel better, right?)


Wet Paint thread:
I really enjoyed everything. It was fun playing with tools I had used, used and forgotten or never even seen. I would have to say the most FRUSTRATING thing about 23 things was that I did the assignment every week, on time...until now. The last assignment and I didn't get it done in time. Hope that is still counts:)

Shelfari and Goodreads

I originally created my Goodreads account last summer and while I used it often at first, I do not seem to go to it too much anymore. I created a Shelfari account a month or so ago for school and found I did the same thing. This week was a great motivation to go back to these sites and look at some of the stuff I can do with them. It was more then just catching up on books I've read and what I want to read, but explored the shelves of friends and looked at reviews and suggestions. I have logged back on daily this past week and will continue to use these accounts:)

Delicious

My 23 things slide show! I cheated and used a presentation I had already made for class. And on a subject we have already done! Oops. The hardest part for me was actually posting my response on the 23things site. It would not publish anything I was submitting. I was terrified I would look so strange when like, ten of these responses pop up...beginning with my trying to be witty, then confused, then annoyed... Hm, well- Check out this SlideShare Presentation:

Week 12

Ah! I am really hitting the deadline with this one! I have been so busy with work, school and Easter activities that I almost forgot about this week's assignment...oops! But do not fear, I downloaded Jing and recorded my screen-cast. The following is a captured screen-cast, without audio, of my boyfriend showing me how he constructs a house on Google's 3-d modeling program called, "Sketch-Up." Enjoy (haha) and Happy Easter to all:)
