Lesson #9 Life long Learning

I really think this by far was one of the best lessons so far on 2.1. With so much information at our fingertips, what a shame it would be to ignore all these oppurtunies that could make ones life so much fuller.
The fruitcake recycling on Life Hacker opens so many more windows so to really make that cake a entertaining & useful part of the holidays.
More seriously, Berkleemusic is great, those piano lesson could soon become a reality, something I've wanted to do for myself for a very long time. Ehow & Expert Village are terrific and really user friendly, a great way to get the know how that is needed for your next project.
All of these site have so much to offer, thanks for the introduction... I really enjoyed looking at them.

Lesson #8

As far as the OCLS Strategic Plan it really seems to be right on the money. The vehicles of communication are terrific, they're interesting to where they really pique your imagination and are inviting enough to make you want to join in. Again, there is something for everyone to share in, your age, no matter what isn't a berrier to any of the options that are provided, sometimes maybe being on-line with some of these avenues gives us more confidence to try something new. Many new ways to join in & participate in different methods of communication. One of my personal favorites is Orlando Memory.
OCLS seems to be on track in communication arena and always moving forward to try to give us as patrons & staff new an innovative way to reach out and experience a new or better way of getting in touch & improving the road to get there.

Lesson #7

I enjoyed Farecast & Kayak, I love any looking and planning for upcomming travel adventures especially when they involve great prices, it's more I can spend when I get where I'm going.
I've used zillow in the past it's interesting and fun to look around.What I really enjoyed was "Im Cooked", I'm one who enjoys cooking but especially baking anytime but most certainly at holiday time.
Geneology searching is a great interest of mine, something I've steadily done for the past 18 or 19 years.
I had alot of enjoyment with this lesson...

Lesson #6

Nice break, Looked around a little, not alot, had too many other things to do for holiday preperations. Forgot to look for the eggs, I'll check the frig!!!
