thoughts on technology

Again, I am not a writer. I am an artist, a teacher, a facilitator, a mentor and most of all, a learner. It seems that I am constantly finding out things that I don't know, or perhaps it is that I have forgotten things that I should have remembered. I say this because it is intimidating to me to read other participants blogs and to read such good postings. Maybe it is being an art teacher; I think art teachers are more competitive than other content teachers. Oh, well, I'll try to do better.
My work here at the Globaloria will be on the simplest of terms. The computer that I brought from school reinforces the idea that I need to 'bite the bullet' and buy my own new laptop. THis one is sooooooooo slowwwwww. I would like to embed links to other sites but it takes about 4 minutes to load onto another site and I am afraid of losing my connectivity. I did read the wv designdiva's posting and it was awesome. Bill DOrsey had some good ideas and Patrick's had a link about photography that I will be sure to check out. Rachel's art links about gaming is definitely one that I will begin with because after all, I am an art teacher.
