Thing 19

As I mentioned in my previous Thing, I'm an avid member of Facebook, and have now acquired a MySpace as well! The social networks that I found appealing were Fuzzster (because I love animals) and 43 Things. 43 Things was especially interesting; I liked looking at the random list of people's new year's resolutions for 2011. Some of them, like "think more, react less" and "lend unconditional peace to circumstances that would otherwise drive me crazy" really made me stop and think! I'm going to brainstorm for awhile about a creative resolution of my own, then join 43 Things and post it. :) Teacher Pop also looks like a really great online community; my profile info is still pending approval from an administrator, and once it goes through I plan to become an active member! Networking for professional purposes is something I aspire to do more of as I move closer to beginning my career as an educator, and tools such as these will undoubtedly prove useful.
