Thing #11: Library Thing
Thanks to Library Thing, I now have a new way I can keep track of the books I've read.
Thing #10: Avatars
It was fun picking from the avatar options on several of the image generators. What choices! I finally settled on one from Meez.
Thing #9: MERLIN and News Feeds
I looked at MERLIN and our own HCL contribution, and will check it periodically. Also feel more sure about how to use news feeds.
Thing #8: RSS Feeds
The on-line videos were helpful, and made Really Simple Syndication do-able for even a non-techie like me. I picked out a few feeds I thought would be interesting, especially news sources, and loaded them into my Bloglines Account.

Thing #7: Technology
2007 is the first year we've had a digital camera. For so many reasons, I wish we'd bought one years ago. The photos seems sharper and can be edited in a variety of ways. They can be printed almost instantly at a drug store. Most impressive to me is how easy it is to upload pictures onto the computer for editing and sharing on the internet.
Thing #6: Mashups
You can do so much with these apps, and I'll definitely use them if I continue with blogging. The librarian trading cards are a hoot.
