I am done and not going to belabor this wrap up! I've learned a ton but need more practice and practical experience using and sharing. I think Bloglines has been a godsend but it has some trouble spots. I ended up subscribing to the JPL Web 2.0 blog, my own and others of course so I could simply toggle between the two or more while completing our exercies for credit. At some point, this newsreader developed problems with my blog and would not display in a new window so that I could simply log on and post and I don't know why. Trying to solve the problem, I placed my blog into the trash and added it back and it's functionality has returned when accessing from Bloglines. Only now, it's icon looks like a folder or sheet of paper on a copier rather than a blog emblem like all the others, the orange "B" icon. At various times my icon was different colors. Ultimately, I could have a blog on bloglines but I really think for the time being I will also put my beta blog to bed. I don't have a need to make public thoughts! Just need to close her out at this point for my training credits. Gracias...buenas noches!

Audiobooks (or "The end is in sight")
The Overdrive lesson is a review of the overview all here received in Fall "06 then known as Digital Library 101 for 2 credit hours. I am anxious to use my new MP3 player and hope to utilize what we offer from our Audio Library. I opened my account and placed an item on hold so maybe the arrival of the player and my selected title will coincide. I think we should all use or at least know how to use and encourage customers to take advantage of these resources. Not that I care for the headphones jammed in the ears routine...but it has a time and place. Maybe while I'm in the workroom and blasting through projects, such as Web 2.0. It sure beats listening to streaming radio. That's my .02 cents about Overdrive!
