#20

Wow!! Doesn't seem like it has been 20 weeks. On the whole, this has been quite the learning experience. The only thing I wish could have been different--some of the activities needed more "practice" time than one week. I did have problems with the online applications and tools, but perseverance paid off!!!
Pandora has become a favorite. Only thing if I am going to use it too much, I will need better speakers!!
Gaming is an old friend and finding favorite places on maps and geotagging is really fun.
I do think that I would really want to have my own computer, can't imagine depending on library public computers to work on some of these programs.

Gaming

I definitely did better at the adult games. I played super text twist and decided that I would quit when I lost. I couldn't loose, so had to quit anyway. I always enjoy playing bejeweled. I tried funbrain and primary games and struggled to win the game!!! I am really glad that those were for kids.

I worked with Zoho and Googledocs. I really think Googledocs would be the easiest and less information to go through to figures out what you really wanted. I guess I'm just a Google-Girl.

maps

Maps are always fun for me. I found every place I have lived and where some of my favorite friends and family live. But it is always fascinating to see the lay of the land and the streets. The street where I grew up actually goes the opposite direction than I thought it did!! I had much better luck finding directions here than in Mapquest.
