Assignment-3
I have not used Flickr before but have tried other image tools as Camtasia Studio 5 and Facebook. Similar to Flickr for sharing and storing images is Facebook. I did open a Flickr account to use it and tried to create a badge with some of my photos. I created the badge but was able to add it to my blog, some error message :-( . I am sure Flickr could be a benefit to share photos of authors, illustrators, new
book releases and so on.
Some of the tools would be useful. I can see mashups being a useful tool in bringing information together in one location. Bringing together various pieces of a theme based project for a website display to provide information to our library patrons.
I have not used any mashup tools, but a friend has used mashups or a similar process for slide show presentations of walking treks I have done in the United Kingdom. He has used Google Earth and downloaded from his GPS each days trek and then superimposed them onto Google Earth and added them to a slide show presentation. It's quite fascinating!

Assignment-2
HI All!
I look forward to the next few months!
New technology does not come easy to me. I like learning more about technology, but if I don't use it, I lose it. What is that old saying? "Practice makes perfect." This summer I just finished a Mohawk College course, called Electronics and it's very similar to what Web 2.0 is offering us.
I'm optimistic this training will reinforce what I've already learned and encourage me to begin/continue using some of this technology on a regular basis.
