Thing 22 Audiobooks-dear to my heart, as a see an MP3 player in my near future. I visited and was impressed by NetLibrary, Overdrive, and Project Gutenburg. Very pleased to see that Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin was available. Good stuff.
Thing 21 Found out that a podcast was a non-musical audio or video broadcast distributed over the internet which uses MP3 file format. You just need a PC with headphones or a speaker.

Thing 20. Explore YouTube. Had a hard time choosing a worthwhile video. This is a site that requires discretion and perseverance to get through so much material, as much of it is not of interest.
Thing 19 Discover any site from the 2.0 Awards List. Visited Lulu, which allows users to self-publish, and Library Thing which helps create a library-quality catalog of books. Both seems easy enough to use (with persistance, in my case), and the disadvantage might be so many offerings. I would thing Library Thing would be of great use in cataloging.

Thing 18 Online Applications and Tools. Looked at Zoho Writer and Google Doc's and found out these sites could be used for word processing/spreadsheets and also to add to a blog. We'll see.
Thing 17 Wiki's. This was easy to do, and this venue seems a great way for groups to share info.
