Wiki Wacky

I'm wandering the web.... it's so easy to get sidetracked; I set up my wiki but spent so much time reading help pages, best practices, etc. that I haven't done much with it yet. I hope it will provide organization for next year's TV Tune Out Week, plus a place to organize resources, track planning, etc. We'll see! For now, I've finished today's root beer float, and my garden is calling its siren song. Have a great weekend!

Caught like a bug in the web

Actually, it's pretty funny - here's the notice I just got:
This email was sent by riverforestlibrary.org to

C'mon - I'm having enough trouble! ;)

what's linking where?

OK, I think part of my frustration is that when I'm working on my mac at home, it automatically links some things to others based on which gmail I have open (or maybe it's just capricious...)
I have a Google account with a Yahoo address, a personal gmail, and a work gmail - and the work gmail doesn't support all of the apps. So I get utterly confused trying to figure out why Blogger gives me messages like "You are not an author on any blogs" - from my own blog - or why when I click on something in Google Reader it changes the options in other windows I have open. I'm trying to decide if I should try to figure it out (again) or just go with the current approach - blinders, and the same password for everything.

Why I haven't tried Social Mention or Addictomatic

It's very simple, really. I ran out of root beer for my root beer float. I started with Google alerts, set up 3 alerts, and messed around with some other stuff - reading comments, changing blogs I'm following, putting stuff in folders on Google Reader. By the time I was down to the last slurp, I figured I NEEDED a root beer float in hand to work on 21 Things. I know I'm behind (still finishing Thing 6!) but I think I only have one root beer float worth of tech concentration in me, at least when I'm doing this in the evening. And with the speed-freak summer reading atmosphere @ work, evening is the only time I can manage!

Summer reading is great fun, but I will be relieved when we're done. By next summer I plan to clone myself. Either that or learn to set more realistic goals - hmmm, cloning's probably a more realistic goal than me being realistic...

more "what was i thinking?!!"

OK, summer reading WILL end at some point (actually fairly soon; our wrap-up party is Friday - YAY!)and I might actually catch up - right now I've just been browsing other "21 travelers" blogs & enjoying those & the comments. Thanks Kelley for your feedback! I haven't finished last week's "things", but I already use Firefox, so I'm looking forward to exploring that more. As far as wikis, we use one for our library staff and I've found that very helpful. We just had our first meeting for next April's TV Tune Out week today, so I may use that for my wiki.

I imported my browser bookmarks, which included one for Library 2.0 in 15 Min. a day. I'd added that in 2007. Hmmm....

importing now...
We use a delicious account for some reference sites, and I like having that available; hoping delicious will help me keep MY stuff in a more organized manner. Love that I can search bookmarks!
