Thing 1 of the 23 Mobile Things



What I hope to learn


To begin the new year and to celebrate working in a place that encourages me to keep learning, I am taking part in 23 Mobile things . Through this project I would like to increase my skill level with my personal mobile devices as well as learn more about how these and other platforms can be used in a library setting. I currently have an Android phone and a Kindle Fire HD. I am interested in seeing how many of the “things” I can do either partially or totally on the Kindle. If I can manage to pry it out of my kid's hands and flip through all of the ponies, kitties and other critters she has already loaded on the carousel I will likely use that device at home and the phone when on the go. At the end of the challenge I expect to have expanded my awareness of available apps and utilities and just what my devices are capable of.
