Beginning

Thank you Allana, Christa, Michael, and Susan for the amazing 23 experiences! And thank you for your patience and endurance!

After completing all of the Discoveries, I feel I'm no longer on the fringes...not really knowing...about these technologies. The difference was the hands-on experience! Invaluable!

My favorite discoveries were: Image Generators, Delicious, Slideshare, PBWiki, GoogleDocs, and My Heritage from the Web 2.0 Awards List! My least favorite was probably Twitter.

I really liked how I could work on these activities at my own pace and on my own time schedule. I didn't have to "be" at class at a particular hour of the day. I could work on an activity at my home computer for awhile, do laundry, come back to the activity, make a meal, come back to the activity, etc. And some days I could work on activities while I was at work. That kind of schedule really works for me!

I know that I haven't retained all the knowledge that I gleaned from this class. I need to go back & keep using the technologies so they become more automatic for me. Any chance that these 23 things will stay posted online beyond Jan. 30 so one could go back & refresh one's memory?

Depending on the topic, I'd most likely participate in another discovery program. I need to keep "stretching." Thanks again!
