Task #5 - I haven't used the "book bag" to make my requests in the past, because I usually have only one at a time, but this feature is really great for those occasions when patrons come up with their lists. I'll definitely use it more, and of course will point this out to the patrons who like to make their own requests from home. It's also easy from the staff point of view to place holds in Millennium because you can open up a patron record and just chug away with adding holds.

Task #4 - I wasn't going to create a Facebook account, but figured oh what the heck. It wasn't but a few hours that three friends from California hooked up, and one even wrote a message to which I replied pronto. Now that I've got it, it's going to be interesting to see who else finds me. I never did get to the list of Facebook accounts that we could chose from.

Task #3--Well, oops. Got 86.6% need to slow down and not take the test so fast, but it was interesting to see how much information is packed into our web site.
Whooshing right along to Task #2. This is great. I don't have to rely on the scratchy radio reception to get music I like. I chose Pandora, and it's fun to play around and see what pops up. Picking "genre stations" resulted in some interesting music!
