Technological Preparation

I called off work sick today, so in addition to napping, I decided to prepare my computer for the semester.  I downloaded Jing, created accounts for Screencast, WorldCat, and RefWorks, and watched the introductory presentation posted on Courseweb.

I then installed Firefox for Mac, since I'll be using my MacBook for the class.  Finally, I installed the Zotero, XMarks, and PittCat + add-ons for the Firefox browser.  

I will be addressing Assignment 1 after another bout of snoozing.

Introduction!

Hello, everyone!  I'm a Fast Track MLIS student from cohort 8.5.   I began the MLIS program as an Archives student, but have recently switched to the Academic, Professional, and Specialty Libraries track.  I'm a web master for the Commonwealth, so I'm fairly comfortable around websites and new technology.  I'm looking forward to the semester and hope to supplement my current knowledge of IT with the information from this course.  

Also, Macs rule!
