Online Image Generators (Image Chef)



Yada yada yada.

O. K. This is not my thing!!!!

Messing with RSS (Bloglines)

I entered Bloglines and set up an account, which was really easy.

They listed information categories and requested preferences. I chose only from the left column and indicated books and science.

I checked each of the categories that I had chosen and the 1 category that was chosen for me. I then proceeded to edit the ones that I didn't feel were really beneficial, including the one the site chose for me.

Now I have a reasonable 3 categories. However, this may prove to be far too many categories to "keep on top of", so I may be revising in the near future.

Using a Flickr Tool

I tried all of the Flickr applications that were mentioned. Some were fun and one literally gave me a headache!

I may be missing something but I don't see a direct classroom use to most of the applications I tried--at least using the photos that are already online in Flickr.

The "Warholizer" was fun and I made something that I like, but I still don't know how I'd use it in my classes. However, I could see it being used in Introduction to Psychology in the Perception & Sensation chapters.

Here's what I made, starting with a photo of my Alaskan mask:

Explosion of Multiple Births


Announcing one set of sextuplets, 2 sets of double sextuplets, and one set of double quintuplets!!!

That's why I'm behind with my 23 things, because I've been dealing with 40 things!!

Here's a shot of one pigmented litter and one albinic litter:
