The end

So I have finally finished my web challenge and I feel good that I stuck to it. Although I believe that all the things I learnt how to do and those that I already knew how to do will come in handy at some point in my life. Even though I didn't care for twitter or the podcast challenge I am greatful that I at least now have a knowledge of how they work. For the most part I enjoyed learning how to do all the other challenges and was proud of myself when I accomplished each one. I hope that the next web challenge has even more rescources for us to explore and learn the ways of using them.

Listen NJ

I found this site easy to work with. well easy after I found a title that didn't have a waiting list and was compatible with my Ipod. I think that I will be using this program in the future for road trips when I want to read a book, but can't because I get car sick if I do. This way I can just put in my ear buds and listen away. I chose to download The Shack which sounds like an interesting title and after I listened to a little bit of the beginning I knew that i had made a good chose.

Podcast

I found a few interesting podcasts and then some that really didn't fit into waht I was looking for. I searched dogs and found a few casts on help with problem dogs and dog therapy groups wich could be helpfull.

Delicious

This was a site that I have never been to and I don't think I'll be using it much in the futur. It seems like another place for lists of things that people found interesting at some point along the way.

Tagging

Okay so I have been tagged before in pictures on facebook and have used it myself so this challeneg was pretty easy forme. I did however enjoy the wordle site I used a few nicknames we have for our dog and i thought it looked pretty cool. I even printed it out to show off what I learnt to do.

Wiki

Although this is a useful website I don't see myself having much need to use it in the future, However I did like all the lists they provide for you such as events for children at librarys and all program for the matter. I think it is a usefull site for finding information about any library fast and easy and all in one spot.
