Now onto item 23. This has been quite a challenge for me since I am not too computer savvy. Some of it was a lot more technical than I would have liked. Others was fun. I really felt crunched for time so I could not devote the time I would have liked to most of the projects. I am going to keep the instructions and hopefully will have some time to go back and explore some of the websites at a more leasurely pace.

I really liked making the poster. That was a lot of fun. I also plan to go back to wikispaces and set up my own wiki. I really like the idea of keeping recipes on there. Then when people ask for a recipe, I can refer them to my wiki. Shelley asked if I wanted to contribute recipes to her wiki. So that is an option also.

And when I get my Amazon Kindle, I will definitely get back into downloading books, books, and more books.

I do not spend a lot of time on the internet, so I am not too sure how the rss feeds, search engines, podcasts, would be beneficial to me at this time. It's good to know that such things exist. Maybe, if I explore more, I will find a use for more of them in my life.

Well, it is now 11:40 on 4/5/2010. I actually finished before the deadline of 4/6/2010.

Thanks to Penny setting up a new account for audiobooks, since I could not remember my login and password, I was able to download the Adventures of Robin Hood by Evelyn Charles Vivian. I did not have time to peruse the website now, but I have done it in the past when my mp3 player was working. Then I had downloaded a number of books and thoroughly enjoyed listening to them. Sometime this year, I will have an Amazon Kindle, whether I win it or buy it. That is a nust do for this year. I really miss being able to download books and take them with me.

Podcasts are becoming very popular. I went to podcastdirectory.com and found a few things. One was the entire book, Pride and Prejudice read by Annie. You could download it in segments. Chapters 1-4 are found at http://www.podcastdirectory.com/podshows/4339494. Other chapters are found there also. Also found Bloody good chocolate fudge recipe at http://www.podcastdirectory.com/podshows/7486530. Podcasts are the up and coming thing in the scientific community. I work on a journal called Gastroenterology and almost every article has a podcast attached to it.
