The Last Thing!

Well, I have completed the program and learned 23 new things! Actually, I have learned a lot more than that because anything computer related is a challenge for me.
Thanks to the people who put this program together! It was a great opportunity to learn different ways of connecting with people and creating documents and files that can be accessed by many. I learned how to play around with photos! That was something that I had never done before.
This was also an my introduction to blogging. I'm not sure that I will be a faithful blogger in the future. There doesn't seem to be enough time in the day, but I am grateful for the chance to try it. Now I feel like I'm caught up to the most current online/social media options!
The GIS portion was a lot of fun and I think I will have fun with mapping and geographical data in the future.
It's been a good 13 weeks!

Social Networking, Widgets and Gadgets, GIS

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind but somehow it all gets done!
I am familiar with Facebook so that was nothing new, but I had never heard of Diigo before. Diigo would have been extremely helpful when I was studying and needed to save various articles and websites for my research.
The Widget application was simple and nothing essential that I would use terribly often.
The GIS/mapping is intersting. I would be interested to learn more about the various kinds of maps and information that can be obtained. I would be interested in various population stats, disease spread, socioeconomic mapping, etc.
It has been an informative few weeks!
