My RSS blog feed

Of the sites given here I was most impressed with Topix.net which opened to our locality (Athens, OH). Feedster was pop culture trendy. I finally tried "Habitat for Humanity International" as a subject and eventually made my subscription through the Bloglines search tool .

My RSS Note

It is getting easier to do, which is the overall objective, eh? I feel more comfortable with this new technology, and know I can explore more effective when I decide to take more time to play Christopher Columbus with the technology. The "Using Bloglines" tutorial was helpful when going step-by-step through this process.

My Technology Note

Alden Library ca. 1970

My technology note is to put up another photo so I make the uploading and downloading a little bit habitual. My head was swimming while doing the first one. Hey, no one else could claim Whitney's time when I was there!

This photo of the early Alden Library remains an interesting one. I've been working in this building since 1979. So here is a 21st century application of technology. Keep doing this and it might get to be fun!

My Picture

Meadows and Mountains

Here's a good photograph of the ways the Blue Ridge Mountains look. Hard to beat the majestic scenery! Photos like this can take me home really quickly.

For the record, however, my home now is Ohio, and I like it well also.

Habits Comment

The habit that most concerns me is #7 - "teach/mentor others". Technophobia is still with me, and I'm not certain how good a teacher or mentor I can be. So I am happy others are willing to serve as teachers and mentors. For those who are doing this, thanks to you all.
