Instant Messaging, Meebo, and Me
Well, for this assignment, I "Meebo-ed" with Lauren today. It was entertaining. I learned one of her sheep had triplets! :) I found out I am still a somewhat slow typer, and that I would probably enjoy SKYPE more because it is, I'm assuming, less work, :) and if you have the right equipment, you can see, hear, and talk to the person you are calling. I am planning on installing SKYPE on my computer at home and trying it out at a later date. I also installed a Meebo gadget on my blog, although I am not sure how much use it will actually get! :P The other thing that I did for this lesson was I went to OPAL and downloaded a session on gaming to my MP3. We are practicing downloading things to our MP3 players around here since we just got on "Montana Library to Go". This is the site where you can download borrowed audio books to your computer/MP3 for free thru your local friendly public library. I have listened to part of the session on gaming, and it was good. They said that the games they used at their libraries gaming sessions were "Mario Cart Double Dash", "Battlefield 1942" (for teens), and my personal favorite, "Dance Dance Revolution", which is the one that I own and bring for the kids about every other time we have a gaming event. We try and have children's and YA gaming events about once a month with our Wii, but they are going relatively slow at the present moment. and that's it, I guess for this post!
