Week 3, #7 - Photo Editing Tools - Picnik
I took this pic from a boat near Portage Glacier not too far outside of Anchorage. The original pic was much larger. Of course I felt the need to cut the original into a circle so it would look nice in my scrapbook. I have no idea where the negatives are (and I never finished the scrapbook).

Week 3, #6 - More flickr fun
I checked out a few of the mashups and other "flickr fun." I think the RSS feed illustrated with flickr photos is an interesting idea, but the photos come in too slowly. I would really like to map one of my road trips with flickr when I get some time. A lot of time. I will have to scan all of my photos, edit them, and upload them to flickr first. One day. . .

Week 2, #4 - Online Safety
Now that I have a child, internet safety is especially important to me. I want to post pictures on the internet so that my friends and family around the world can view them. Some of the people I invited to view my photos had trouble creating an account and logging in. Therefore, I decided to make my pictures public. I removed all names from the photos and I do not name specific locations. I also do not tag my photos. This way, people I do not know are less likely to come across them. Besides photos, I would never give out any personal information over the Internet unless I am sure of who I am communicating with. I would certainly never arrange a meeting with someone I met online. When my baby grows up I know I'll be the overprotective over the shoulder mother watching every little thing she does. As far as the Internet is concerned, there will, without a doubt, be major supervision.

Week 2, #3 - My Learning Style
I definitely learn best by doing. Working for HCPL has been a blessing. I get paid to do what I love and I get hands-on experience. Although it is hard for me to find time to do anything besides take care of my daughter and work toward my MLS degree, I am pretty organized and manage to get things done. It helps that work and school are one and the same. The library is a classroom and I make it a point to learn all that I can while I'm there.
