What great co-workers!

I just want to say a word about what I see as the very best outcome of this 10 week exercise. It's really not even about becoming more adept at technology, although that's certainly a plus. It's really about teamwork! I've been so impressed reading all you folks' blogs. Almost everyone writes, "thanks to so and so for helping me, I was able to put up an RSS feed, or I was able to load my photos to the web." This is fantastic.

Library Sue, another one of our tech gurus, has just given me a hint regarding another picture site that seems to work smoother than those generators. Too bad though because I really liked the photo I generated. It was a lovely, big 747 on a runway with the logo "Wanderlust" on it. Speaking of wanderlust, I'll be getting out of Dodge for a few weeks and won't be able to complete my assignments in a timely manner. Sorry, but I doubt I'll be blogging from the cruise ship. At least not on this blog - maybe on my book blog though since I plan to cart at least 6 books with me (not to mention the 3 on my mp3) and Don will have his laptop.

I went to Library Thing, made ANOTHER account (good thing we're writing down all these passwords) and then I made a list of some of my favorite reads. It's somewhat interesting to see how many people who are on LibraryThing read the same titles that you do and I guess I could see that, if I was really lonely and had no one to talk to about books, I might enjoy speaking with one of the other 300-some folks in the whole of LibraryThing land who, like me, mention Frank Rich's autobiography Ghost Light as one of their all-time favorites. I kind of doubt I'll be back there too often.
