Thing 23

Oh thing

How I will miss thee!
The blogging into the wee hours of the night,
Finding and tagging oh so delicious sites,
Leaving and reading my comments and questions,
Always checking my blog for your suggestions,
From screencasts to podcasts and selections galore,
A variety of 2.0 tools, but there's still so much more!

Youtube was only one of the few that I've seen,
And I've already had experience capturing things on the screen,
But the new things I learned have been oh so much fun,
I still can't believe we're just about done!
Mashups I adore and I love leaving tweets,
Voicethreads I liked and Slideshow (Prezi) was neat,
Widgets and Wikis were also fun to explore,
And I hate to admit it, but LinkedIn was a snore.
I even tried to edit our Wiki personal page,
But every edit or change was undone and not saved.
An editor named Beachdrifter undid many of our changes,
We have a better idea of what to do after a few usertalk exchanges.

This project was exciting and I liked doing it at my own pace,
My blog became my home, my thoughts and comments given a space.

It was exciting to see which Thing others were doing,
Seeing how each person did it differently; ideas started brewing.

A great time committment, but this whole experience was worthwhile,
I had fun doing each Thing, interpreting each to my own style.

I enjoyed this immensly, not only learning for me,
But also with each and every one of you. Here it comes!! The end of twenty-three.

  1. I thought the poetry was for the color group activity yesterday? :) Just kidding! That was awesome! Great way to finish!

  2. How appropriate that your 23 Things project ends as it began--in rhyme.

    "I had fun doing each Thing, interpreting each to my own style." How True!

    Thank you for your participation.
