Thing 44

Wow!! This was one thing I didn't think would be of interest to me at all' considering the sad shape of our current economy. I was afraid it would just be to depressing. Yet, I discovered so many cool and helpful tools here!

Some were more applicable to me than others, but I found and bookmarked several that I will visit and explore in more detail. I happen to use bill pay through my bank service, but must go monthly to enter the amount I want/need to pay for each bill. So after some investigation I chose to enroll in the WhatsBills.com site to help keep me on track. Some times I get my bills, and may not log them for payment right away. Using this new site will help remind me whether or not I've scheduled a needed payment or not!! Since I'm getting older and more forgetful, this tool will be a great value to me.

Thing 42

Being a music lover this thing was really fun. I am a RealPlayer fan, and use it at work all the time. First thing I bring up each morning is my list of favorite stations, and then I make a choice based on my mood. I added the ShoutCast radio widget, and plan to spend more time checking this out.

I think the number of music choices is awesome, but I'm the kind of person who tends to find what works and stick with it. This thing gave me a chance to reconsider if there is another option better for me and to have the chance to check out what else is out there.

Thing 29

I set up several google alerts and will monitor how useful this tool will be. I also use gmail as a source for mail and have now set it up to include incoming home mail for ease and access. I like to use gmail for most of my general email use, keeping home email more private and personal. This works well, and I like including gmail on my igoogle page. It is so convenient when I bring up my page each day to be able to check mail without having to read it, and in some cases, simply pull the menu down and delete email that is junk. I find it's functions practicle and useful.

I will have to follow up once I've been able to see how alerts work, and if they provide me with the information I'm seeking.

Thing 27

Twitter is one tool I didn't find particularly interesting or useful. Perhaps I didn't fully understand or embrace the use of it. I opened the account, and did the things I was supposed to, but didn't find it a place I visited regularly or used much at all. I followed several things, but again didn't gain much insight from the information or "tweets" I put out.

It is clear Twitter is popular. For those who know me, believe it or not I never had trouble with the limited content. I find myself awash in so many of the options out there i.e. Facebook, Twitter, iming options, even email. I don't find that I have time to be checking in on all the various accounts I've set up, and Twitter is the one I follow up on the least. Guess you can count me out as a Twitter fan.
