Wrapping up Learn & Play 2008
After so much learning and so much adventure, it is finally time to say goodbye to Learn & Play. It's been fun and I must say, quite an experience becoming familiar with so many new tools on the web. I have no doubt that what I've done will be useful in the future, whether it be for my onw personal use , or if it enables me to help a customer in need.
Of all the things that I will take away from Learn & Play, I think none of them are more important than realizing what you don't know and continuing your journey of lifelong learning through the years:-)

Good to be MOLDI
And so Learn & Play finally gets back into the realm of things that I actually have heard of before:-) I've heard of and looked at the MOLDI page before and though I didn't actually try to download anything previously, I thought it was a great idea and a pretty cool tool to have.
This time around while looking at the site, I did attempt to check out and download 2 audio books. Neither one of them worked however (I suspect because I'm on a staff pc) but I got the gist of how it should work anyways. I suppose I'll give it a try again at home and see how it works out. But, for better or worse, this has been my experience so far;-)

Podcast (or... downloadable youtube?)
There are tons of sites for locating and downloading podcasts out there that I discovered. Some of the ones that I liked included podcastalley, podcast.com, and massively.com. All of which seemed to offer a variety of content to download. I've never been one for watching podcasts, though some of my friends are very avid watchers of some of them. So before now I was aware of them but didn't actually have any personal experience with them. Learning more everyday, geeez, will the journey never end?!;-)
Youtube-in
I love youtube! Though it is not new to me at all, it still continues to amaze me the obscure videos that I can find by searching there. It is especially helpful now during the political season to have a good laugh at some political parodies and pranksters. Another video site that I know of and use every so often is launch.com, which brings music videos to people via yahoo.

Looking into Firefox
Thing #19 I have decided to do on Firefox, the internet browser. I have used Firefox before so it is not something that is new to me in that sense. But it is not a program that I use often, and I will mostly choose Internet Explorer over it when provided with the choice because that's what i'm used to. However... I will without hesitation admit that firefox has some benificial aspects and features that make it superior to I.E. If it weren't for the fact that old habits die hard, i'd probably be a huge user of firefox, and who knows... maybe someday I'll decide to make the switch;-) No telling what the future holds!
