MySpace

I confess, I set up my very own MySpace account a few weeks ago, because Charlie Williams, (The Noiseguy) had one, and my life is all about keeping up with the Noiseguy! At first I didn't know how I'd use it, but after reading some other KCLS Learning 2.0 employee blogs, I found a link that would change my life.

onetruemedia.com has become my favorite site, and I will be upgrading to the "premium" service. I'm a photo-bug anyway, (like my namesake, Debbie Reynolds, I can assure my children that they had a lovely childhood, because I have the pictures to prove it!) So, the concept of having my photos arranged with music is too cool!

I have created 2 music videos and loaded them at: http://www.myspace.com/sassysibelle for your viewing pleasure.

The Public Programming Office

This display showed items from their Public Programming Office.

Inside the Library


Inside the Library, originally uploaded by sibellestone.

This is the interior of the NY Public Library. The woodwork is amazing, and I even managed to see some of the "off limits" areas thanks to some very nice staff people.

One of my favorite things to do when on vacation is to go to the library and I usually ask for a library card. I have a small collection from the places I've visited.

New York Public Library

I went to New York on a business trip in late October, and after arriving this was the first place I wanted to visit: The New York Public Library. (That's me in the green blouse standing in the center of the photo).

Feeding Frenzy

I discovered RSS Feeds, and now I must force myself to stop FEEDING! There are so many things I need to know, daily, minute-by-minute. And they are all there on the web for my continued education. Manolo shoes, romance novels, fashionistas, books, books and more books.
I like having the easy update feature, but MUST stop now. I was disappointed to discover one of my favorite sites doesn't have an RSS feature, but maybe they will get one. If you want to check out the website, this is it: http://www.gypsyville.com/
I did add the PI newspaper, a library site, some news and information sites.
Then I added some fun ones too!

Car Crazy


Car Crazy, originally uploaded by sibellestone.

Another accomplishment! This could be addictive, but I wonder who has time to look at all this stuff on the web? I can hardly even keep up with my Email, and all these new things are going to eat up all my free time.
But it is fun!

Blogging with Photos


parade005, originally uploaded by sibellestone.

This is the photo I managed to download to Flickr, and then upload to my blog. I don't even want to confess how much time this took.
Probably too long, but I decided that in order to get through this series of lessons, I wanted to do something that looked challenging.
WOW! My instincts were correct, this was a big challenge for me.
But now I have my friends "Dewey and Sketch" on my blog, and I have the various accounts set up to insert photos into my blog.
Success is sweet!

This is a test post from flickr, a fancy photo sharing thing.
