23 Things, Week 9 #22

I went on Project Gutenberg and located "Poems Every Child Should Know" by Mary Burt and found that it was human read and there were many options for downloading. A number of formats were offered including; Ogg Vorbis Audio, AppleItunes, MP3 Audio and Speex Audio.

Now even Murf can "read" a book!

23 Things Week 9 #21

Podcast.net and Yahoo Podcasts are the two podcast directories that I looked at, but I found Yahoo much easier to navigate. I found church and sermon podcasts which were of interest to me since my husband is a Pastor. I also looked at food, fasion and family podcasts, as well as some music ones. I came across one called Firefly and it had nice violin music (I'm a violinist) so I clicked on that while I was reading the directions of how to add an RSS feed for my Bloglines account. Another co-worker helped me with the process when I got stuck. Firefly is now on my Bloglines and I only pray it is a good site, as I never got to listen to the speaking...

Murphy it's not wise to connect with things you are not sure of....

Racing Baby

23 Things Week 9 #20

I looked at several You Tube videos and really enjoyed them. I saw a great one of the 4 men of Mt. Rushmore singing on the 4th of July - it really had me applauding! The one I would like to post is of a preborn baby looking like he is racing a car - the sounds effects make it so funny. Since I am the mother of a OB/GYN who delivers lots of babies, this would be a special one for our family.

Music and babies are both favorites of Murphpy!

23 Things Week 8 #19

The tool I selected from the Web 2.0 Awards was the #1 Social Networking site of Facebook. While I recently joined Facebook, I am still a novice and I need to learn all that it can do and how I can best use it. I really could use some instruction for new users....to catch up with my friends and family who have added me to their Facebook.

Murphy would be a cute face on Facebook....

23 Things Week 8 #18

I am feeling out of my element here with spreadsheets, but they must be a wonderful tool to math folks. I did a little "Testing, one, two, three - Testing one, two, three" test document.

Ok, Murf this is a test...
