Sometime I wonder why I say yes instead of no.

give me a pen & paper or give me a keyboard & computer
and I can do anything

In my mind everything is perfect

Put me infront of a crowd and see what happens

Today was an interesting day.

I attended the Gulliver Forum at the Rendezvous Hotel in Melbourne.

And why was I there?

I agreed to be part of a panel speaking about our experiences with Learning 2.0.

For over a week I worked on my speech, checked that my blog was working properly, all links were working. There were no nerves appearing and I felt quite confident.

This would be the first time I have ever spoken in front of crowd.

With speech in hand, blog up on the screen I started talking and pointing out a few things I had accomplished and of cause I made a spelling mistake (but that’s typical of me) and while I was talking I was thinking what happened to the perfect speech I had written, I continued on anyway.
After hearing the other presentations I thought, I have to learn to say NO.

Well I guess I can put it all down to another learning experience.

Isn’t that what Learning 2.0 was all about???????

Thing 39: Animoto

Animato
Turning your pictures into a 30 second video or if you want to make a longer one it will cost you. I came across this application from reading one of my many RSS feeds and like the idea and created a video clip (now showing in the sidebar) using pictures I had taken when our Library was being renovated late last year. I'm quite pleased with the outcome.

Thing 38: Comic Relief

ToonDoo
Online comic strip makers would be a great tool for someone with a good sense of humour unfortunately I'm not one of them, so I scouted around ToonDoo and found a strip that I thought was very appropriate to add to my blog.

Thing 37: Music to our ears

LastFM

While I like listening to music, I’m not really into any particular person or group. I’m not one to listen to the radio very often so for this exercise I decided to create an Album Quilt of a artist who I always enjoy listening too, John Farnham, although he has not released any new albums lately his old songs are always a good listen.
