My Digital Tool Box
This is my sandbox, a place to find and play with my online resources and tools in one spot. I am getting so many ideas for tools and great web pages especially from Twitter that I can't find them when I want to experiment. When I am busy doing other things, like gardening or visiting with my grandchildren, the only tech tools I use are my iphone for long periods. But when I am back using technology on the web I want to be able to find what I want when I want it. So many toys, so little time.
I am a retired school librarian who never dreamed in a million years that I would be a librarian, but I loved it. Look on my blogamania list to see my blogs on graphic novels, apps, and the history of my school where I taught. I find it handy to have things on line that interest me.
