How do I do that?
Friends in MD didn't understand how to conduct an activity and so I created the below with a flip camera and uploaded it to You Tube. Demonstration is from FEFE 1.12.1. (I am not a movie star but the point comes across).

Tired of un-used photos?

Need some workout motivation? Nike Plus & Nike Running-I love to run, set goals and listen to music so using the Nike Plus along with my Ipod keeps me rocking and the road smooth. I don't know where the undies went on my mini! |
I love to read Shelfari-Have you ever read four chapters and then realized you've already read the book? If so, Shelfari is for you. Keep track of what you've read and share with friends. You could even start a long distance book club or have kids brag about their reading over the summer. The latest books I have read are shown at the right. Use the arrows to scroll. Once I have time I hope to write reviews of the books we use in our readers workshop at school and upload that shelf to my class website. |

I love my son and recording his moments with a flip...
it's easy to load on YouTube and to social networking sites-I need to work on my editing skills.

Smilebox
This is a great way to share video and pictures in a virtual way! No more scissors and pictures all over the house...Thanks Cadre for sharing.
On the right is a quick Smilebox of Gulnaz's visit from Kyrgyzstan. Gulnaz came to America to learn of our culture, our technology use, education system and share her culture with the students of West High. My family was her host family for 2 weeks and it was a wonderful experience. Also while Gulnaz was here I learned how to use Wordpress as that is the blog format we used for Gulnaz to share her experience. Smilebox was easy to embed in Weebly and Wordpress. Gulnaz's Blog |

More sites that I use for "life"
- Mint-Mint.com keeps my honey & I rolling in the money. If you have trouble keeping track of your finances try mint.com. It also tracks goals and sends you email reminders!
- Mapquest-How far in walking distance is the Bellagio from Mandalay Bay-this may seem unimportant but is a must know if running a marathon. Send directions to phone and share with my husband (because he thinks he knows where he is going but you and I know he doesn't).
- Snapfish-with a family full of beautiful people and living in "the last best place" I am always taking pictures. Snapfish allows me to load them on the web, order cheap prints and make photo gifts such as calendars, albums and more.
- Caringbridge-This has been excellent in times of health trauma in our family and with close friends. We are able to stay up to date and offer appropriate assistance.
