Thing 5 part 2

Pleading the 5th Thing

I had fun making a list on Wunderlist.  I found 20 + items that I could "C" in the kitchen.  Someone helped me send the list to my email account and then I went home.  Six days later upon my return to work, I planned to post the list.  I found an message from Wunderlist asking me to verify.  I did so but the email of the list never showed up in my inbox.  We don't know why I didn't receive it; perhaps because of the six-day delay...who knows. I will try again when I get the time but I'm already looking at thing 6.

Thing4 Day2

Today using the iPad mini, I installed Bloglovin on it and read some more neat NPR feeds.  Second time around it much easier.  I find that I like the iPad better than the Kindle or the Microsoft tablet.  If I ever decide to buy something mobile, at least I know what I prefer.  Of course, that most likely will be changed by the time I get around to doing so. 

Thing4 - Day 1

So far not so good...I 've spent quite a bit of time this afternoon on Thing 4.  I thought that I added the  Blogloving app [read about it on Meredith blog] to the Kindle I checkout from tech zoo.  Actually it's not an app that can be loaded onto Kindles but I got in through Facebook and added three feeds to my rss.   Jenny figured out that I was on the website not in the App. 


The good news is that  I found some good books on the NPR feed....one is a fiction title that I'd not seen reviewed so it's now in a cart to be ordered.  Also, added two nonfiction titles [both are available at GPL] to my to- read list.  Best of all, I found my niece's YouTube site and saw  that some of her posts have had over 100,000 views.  It seems like a lot to me but maybe that's not much in the YouTubeverse.


As Katie Scarlett O. used to say....Tomorrow is another day.

Thing3

GoogleEarth is probably old news to most of you, but I found it fascinating to revisit places I vacationed in Europe years ago.  I found the house [roof] of friends in a little mountain town in the Alps.  Kind of scary vis a vis privacy as a concept.

The other two apps I tried to download didn't show up on the IPad.  However, I could access them anyway.  Christine D. explained to me that this meant that they were already downloaded once onto the device and then removed...so the icon is no longer there but the access is.

Also, I looked for WeatherKitten app multiple ways but couldn't find it.  Meredith tells me that it might not be available on iOS devices. 

Thing2 with Mr. Lynda

Okay,  I've spent a few hours learning tips and tricks on an IPad.  Problem is I don't own one and now I think it's pretty cool.  Maybe my next task will be setting up a crowdfunding site for myself:)

Thing 1 - Hello and welcome to my blog. 


One small step for Neil Armstrong and 19 big steps for me out into the "appsmosphere" of the library world.   It's all a new universe for me - should be most interesting and fun.
