Web 2.0 Experience - join in for FREE!

Per the School Library Journal's website "Beginning Monday, July 21, Michael (Stephens) will author a blog here on SLJ.com that will lead us through the different exercises, offer guidance, answer questions, and even provide a little hand-holding. We're calling it "All Together Now: A 2.0 Learning Experience." - Anyone can join in and do the excercises, so I'm going to do this to have some company as I continue my exploration of Web 2.0.

If you want to join me go to http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com/

Michael Stephens, technology Guru from Dominican University, should be an awesome guide and it's FREE!

Helen Blowers' Blog

It's been awhile since my last post, but I have been a bit preocuppied by job searching and most recently a visit last week to Kansas City, MO, where I have family and friends.

I really enjoy the http://www.librarybytes.com/ website and will share one of this blogger, Helen Blowers' recommendations. Consider looking at http://wordle.net/ and create your own wordart.

Also check out this 26 minute podcast - http://www.sarahlong.org/podcast/?_episode=105 on Patricia Martin's book "Renaissance Generation." It is a book on my shelf right now which I am hoping to finish in the next month.
