Thing 47 -- Evaluation

05/11/2009
Well, the completetion of another Things learning program! Yeah! And as with the original 23 Things on a Stick, this round of More Things on a Stick was very good -- great to keep up with the ever-changing, fast-paced techno world. And a great way to connect these tools with library uses. A great big THANK YOU to our Minnesota Multitype Library Systems for putting this together for us!

Thing 46 -- WebJunction Minnesota

05/11/2009
I've been a member since July, 2004 -- although not a very active member. When I think about it I scan the site etc but it's just another one of those things to remember to do. I did sign up for a class once ... then got too busy (think that's when the 1st round of Things on a Stick started) and I never went back to it.

I found Linda & Jen and sent "friend" requests ... hmmm, this is too much friending ... sorry, gals, love ya both!

One thing I noticed & don't like -- I'll be ck'ing out a "MN" WJ item and when done I'll hit the "home" button thinking it will send me back to the MNWJ home but it doesn't -- it sends me to the main WJ.

Overall, just another site to remember ... feeling there's an overload of sites to remember ... and I've not really found anything earthshaking that calls me to go back ... but will keep my "membership" as I've done for 5 yrs and keep ck'n in once in awhile.
