Thing 22: Staying Current
Whew! Time does fly. Has it really been three months since we all started the 23 Things journey?
I learned a bunch. While I knew about, or even used, some of the web 2.0 tools I hadn't spent much time with most. They are like a Swiss Army Knife. You use the big knife a lot or the bottle opener. However, there are another 8-10 things you can do with this knife.
Will I keep this blog updated? I will break it to you gently...Nope. I will go back to NEFLIN's Blah, Blah, Blah Blog which is where I'll continue to blog about these 2.0 things and more.
I did meet my original goal. I feel more confident to be able to discuss these Things with others, especially those younger folk who are digital natives and use these Things as a part of their daily lives.
I had a great time at the Blogapalooza. Thanks for joining the party!

Thing 21: Student 2.0 Tools
I used both the Assignment Calculator and Project Research Calculator. They appeal to my right brain.
Like most of us, I wish that I had tools like these when I was in school. I was the unfortunate class that was at the tail end of the typewriter era. My mom packed me a suitcase and a typewriter when heading off to college. The next gen brought their backpack and PC.
I mapped out on paper what these calculators provide electronically. Having e-mail reminders are my favorite feature.
