This is a video from a LEAF Toronto tree tour.

This is a rather badly made video. Who would watch these things?

I see that other libraries have story times posted, though the quality seems poor and I'm not sure I'd want to encourage children to be using computers. Perhaps other library programs could be posted, with the intent of encouraging people to attend.

23 Things Assignment 7

I subscribed to three podcasts: More hip than hippie, Live Green, and Exploring Environmental History. I don't see using this format because I prefer reading to listening but it might useful for information that's unavailable elsewhere. Still, how would you know?

23 Things Assignment 6

This type of set up would be really useful for group work, but I don't know how secure the documents would be. Perhaps something similar is available from GroupWise or a similar vendor.

23 Things Assignment 5

I'm not sure I see the point of this exercise.

23 Things Assignment #4

This assignment went very badly. I used Big Huge Labs and Generator Blog but got error messages when I tried to upload the images to the blog.

23 Things Assignment 3

I didn't manage the feed readers very well. When I checked them after a week's vacation, there was nothing from 3 of them (which likely means that I did something wrong) and 400 items from the fourth. It's far too much to read so I'd only want to subscribe to feeds that I could really limit.
