Bloglines are great! Unfortunately this will cause me further addiction to the computer when I should be studying for class (or doing laundry).

New technology is fun once you get the hang of it, but intimidating until you do. There are so many new things available that sometimes I get overwhelmed. Sometimes I wonder about the things they come up with though (Flickr Chia Pet?). What a waste of time!

Flickr Color Picker is an easy way to access public photos in different colors. You just click on a color and you get 12 photos that match that shade. You can lighten or darken the hue. This would be great for art projects. You can indicate what type of photo you want (ex: floral, tectures, crayon box, etc.)

This sweet photo was taken by Tanja Askani in Alberta Canada. It took me all day to finally learn how to insert this picture!!

My favorite habit from the 7 1/2 Habits of Successful Lifelong Learners is Habit #71/2 Play! I love checking out everyone else's blog and seeing how different ideas are used. My most difficult habit is Habit #3 View Problems as Challenges. Too many times I view problems as inpenetrable brick walls. I need to remember the great feeling of success when problems are taken on and overcome.

My first blog ever

testing, testing! Am I doing this right? This is my first entry into the world of blogging. Be patient with me. It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks.
