Summary

I thought that this was an interesting project for everyone to work on. I almost wish that it was mandatory so that everyone could take part in it or if it was a group blog exercise. I did learn a lot but felt like somethings were said over and over again just different versions of what was being talked about week to week. I would participate in another program if offered. I had already known of a few of the items so they were easy. The program was a little long I think. Otherwise I had a good time.

Week #9 You Tube, Podcasts and Downloadable Audio



So here is my you tube of "Pinwheel". You know the old cartoon/puppet show on Nickelodeon. I love using you tube to find stuff like that. You know stuff you thought you made up in your head as a kid because no one has any idea what you are talking about when you explain the concept. Anyway, You tube would be cute for story times or events that people miss.

Podcasts are great things. I enjoy listening to NPR radio, especially Car Talk. I am able to listen to all the new episodes that I miss in the car on my fiance's IPOD. We enjoy listening to "This American Life" also. Whenever we go on long trip he always makes sure we have a couple of each to listen to.

So I am typing this part for second time because there was a glitch and it didnt save. Anyway I tried looking up Harry Potter at the Project Glutenberg sight. I was not able to find any of those books. Most of the top 100 seemed to be reading list materials.
