So blogging is the second assignment on our 23 things list. I was actually kind of excited. I had been thinking about blogging for a long time. I have a special needs child and life has been quite eventful since her arrival 8 years or so ago. Not that it was not already exciting - working full time, going to graduate school and being a wife and mother! But two years before I finished school along came a miracle named Synclaire. So my other blog fragileyettenacious is about life with her and my other drama queen, Mackenzie. Life is never boring at the Thomas house.
But I digress - this blog is about learning tech stuff! I am not very tech smart. I have a smart phone that my 13 year old understands way better than I do. But I think it is important that I try to push some tech knowledge into my 48 year old head. Now remember that means that other information has to go from my brain to make room for new stuff but hopefully it won't be anything crucial like my children's birthdates or where I live!
Now the assignment this week is to talk about Google products.
What is useful to me - I sing at church on Sundays and about a month ago our worship leader sent out an email to the singers with a link to a google doc with our schedule of songs on it! That is really cool. I can just bookmark it on my phone and there it is whenever I need it. That is very useful!
For patrons - I really think probably google books and google scholar are the two things I will point people to the most. So many high school students and college students could use these from home to research papers if they only knew about them. But maybe it is just me that did not know!
Okay have I learned enough for today?? Are my brain cells still intact?
