Week 10 - 23 Is this really the end?

After such a long trek it seems impossible that this is the end. No longer clicking on iSTAR to find out what are this week’s exercises. No more freaking out because something seemingly so easy is frustratingly hard to accomplish! No more creating accounts with every Tom, Dick, and Harry dreaming up user names and passwords!
Some of my favorite discoveries have been Flickr, Picnik, YouTube, Zoho writer, Animoto, Technorati , Library Elf, Library Thing, the Image Generators, Bloglines and RatemySpace.HGTV.
This program has made me more adventurous when it comes to going to web sites. It also taught me that there is a whole world of sites in the Web ready to teach you.
The most surprising outcome from this program has been that I have become a fan of YouTube!
Library Elf and Library Thing are custom made for customer and personal use at HCPL.
The different Generators are great to use for the children’s programs. Animoto can create great presentations to show different pictures of library programs. As a matter of fact all the sites that have been presented during this learning experience are helpful to our customers in one way or another. Also I feel more “with it” than before the course.
I would like to learn more about HTLM, RSS feeds, and Image Generators.
By the way, thanks for the learning experience but we should get 40 training ours instead of 10
