Here are my reflections so far:
1. Why am I doing this? Not sure except I do think it is a way of the future. I need to know more about the sources of communication that are now out there. I do feel like there is soooo much I don't know when it comes to computers. I tend to let my husband deal with any problems I run into and that is not like me. I need to know more so I can do things on my own. I am also doing this for the CEUs. I figure I can kill two birds with one stone so to speak. Learn about the internet and get CEUs from the comfort of my house. That is kind of neat.
2. What do I want to learn? I want to learn about Twitter, blogging, podding and all those other things that I really have no idea what they are or what I do with them.
3. New insights: I think all of this technology takes time. I find with just keeping up with my two email accounts takes enough time. I am on Facebook and must admit I hardly ever check that. Now with blogging my fear is that I will be spending too much time on the computer. I like to be up and doing things not sitting. I would rather go out with friends and chat as compared to emailing and blogging what is new. But I guess on the plus side by blogging or posting on Facebook everybody knows what you are doing and what you are up too. which leads to the next thought.
4. Writing on the Internet: I have to admit that I think it is strange to just have stuff out there that anyone can read. I think you have to be very careful and think before you post things. Even just what I have written I am assuming anyone from Wilton who is doing the same project can read my thoughts along with probably lots of other people.
Now, I think I am done with Thing 2. What I am not sure of is does someone tell me I am done, do I assume I am done and move onto Thing 3?
So I guess with that I am signing off.

I like your insights. It is sometimes tough to go outside of your "comfort zone" so I commend you for that. Spending time on the computer, whether blogging or using Facebook or YouTube does not have to take up your whole evening. When you get used to these tools, you may even find that they can make you more productive! Keep up the good work.
