I'm having trouble getting the widgets to post to my blog, but I'm going to keep trying even if it makes me crazy! I also added a picture of my Libraries Book Cart Drill team to the Ning. I love the idea of the Ning site, and I'm seriously thinking about making a page for my Anne McCaffrey friends that meet each year in Atlanta. We could have a place to discuss the author, share our trip itineraries, post pictures, and just hang out online. Right now we all use a social networking site devoted to the author, and contact each other through the forum on that page. It is a great way to discuss our interests and make friends online.

I have played with other social networking sites like Project Playlist where I created a list of songs I enjoy. Here is the player if you are interested:
