Thing number 8 and 9

I worked my way through thing 8; RSS feeds. Although, I noticed the rss icons I never realized what they were used for. I'm not sure what I would use this for right now but I'll keep it on the back burner.

Checked out some of the blogline search tools, worked mostly with feedster and technorati, I seemed to like feedster better. I searched for blogs concerning libraries as instructed and came up on some interesting blogs. I have to move on now, I am hoping to come back to technorati explore it a little more. How bout that tutorial narrator.....kind of put me in mind of Miss South Carolina...want to yank my nails out listening to it.

Working a little more with Flickr mashups and third party sites. Flickr can take you in so many directions. I really enjoyed this technological tool, but it's time that I move on to the next "thing". I think I'v fallen behind.

Regardless I created the postcard below. Having an exchange student was interesting and fun we learned a lot about each others culture. But don't let anyone fool you a teenager is a teenager no matter where they come from, oh and by the way, they all cost money too.

Thing number 5 - 7

Finally was able to post a real picture....I had a hard time with some pictures, not sure why maybe because they were from someone else's camera. I didn't feel like I could move on until I accomplished this thing. Now here I go.....

Soccer Benefit, raised $800.00.

These kids held a benefit soccer game to raise money for a former team mate after their house burned down to the ground, no one was hurt. These kids raised $800.00 by holding a chinese auction and other raffles. It was originally supppose to be the girls soccer team against the boys, but they changed their minds once they began to play. What a cold, fun night!
