This has been a learning experience! While at first I thought I'd be familiar with most of the 23 things, I quickly learned I wasn't. Sites like StumbleUpon and Scoopit were new to me, and I got back into using my Pinterest account, which had been dormant for awhile. I would have to say my favourite of the 23 Things was learning how to embed video. Scrolling through TED talks and finding new podcasts was a lot of fun. How-To videos are awesome!
Pinterest should be used more at work. While my gardening theme was fun, I can see the different pinboards being useful for tracking reading lists, advertising new books, etc. I need to start making sites like Twitter and Pinterest live up to their full potential, rather than just for fun. Fun is good, but there's a lot they can do besides what's easiest. The biggest thing I learned was that even though I think I know a fair bit about these internet resources, I've only scratched the surface. I will continue to dig! (Gardening references to the very end!)
