# A Thing about LibraryThing

I like LibraryThing- It's good and easy to look books up and add them to you catalog. I like the fact that it's linked to amazon and you can easily search by title, keyword, or ISBN # to quickly add items.

I like the tag options because you can keep searching for items easily, within the same topics and it gives you suggestions to look into.

#10 Image Generators





It's a picture of me. From an image generator site I found http://www.writeonit.org/

I liked it more than letter James.

#9 Finding Feeds

Blogline’s Browse Categories Feature was my least favorite, there was a lot going on and the icons are small- not always geared towards what you were actually searching for.
http://www.syndic8.com/ website is not user friendly. It was too black and white.
http://technorati.com/ had pictures and categories that actually fit as well as sub categories which I found very helpful on my search.
In Technorati I found a few good technology and politic feeds.

#8 Make life “really simple” with RSS & a newsreader

I created the Bloglines account and added a few feeds that seemed cool or interesting. I felt that there was too much of a repetition with some feeds while searching to add. On the other hand if there was a website that you really wanted to follow it was easy to copy and paste the websites, just like following blogs.

#7 Blog about Technology

Making the switch (for a month!)



I love technology, with technology you can do anything. Specifically google- if someone mentions a person, movie, or anything else I can find out who or what they are and it's such a great tool.

I can even post pictures that I like!

#6 More Flickr Fun

http://cardkarma.com/explore/occasions/valentines-day/

I like this one because I can use photos from flickr, or upload my very own personal photo to use in my e-card. I can also use youtube videos to create my own personalized e-card to send to my friends and family <3

#5 Discover Flickr

I like this picture because it reminds me of when I was younger. When I was in elementary school Nintendo was so the newest best thing and I remember getting a Nintendo for Christmas. I’m still not the best gamer; actually I would say I’m pretty sad when it comes to video games.
