-I work on a wiki for Knowitnow Afterdark resources... It is very cool, but you need time to keep up with it.

Exercise 8

Exploring 2.0 Myspace/Facebook/gmaila

-I enjoy looking at myspace pages, I have had one for awhile, but do not keep up with it. I enjoy the links to music, youtube and other fun and off the wall surveys and silly stuff. I would love for us to have one for our Teens at Medina!

-Facebook, is also fun and I have enjoyed touching base with some old friends.
