- love YouTube - one of the easiest applications for me to use
- created an account and posted a comment at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-mIHk2rM0Q
- use it to learn new pieces in my choir by:
- find best version of a choir singing the piece we're practising in choir - for example here is link to one (ignore video) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DNNdAROixI or this one with Oscar Peterson who needs a choir for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-mIHk2rM0Q download it and sing along with YouTube choir, music in hand
- turn on the electric keyboard (situated right across from computer) and peck out the problem notes along with YouTube and sing at the same time - over and over and over again if necessary to 'get it'
- above process guaranteed to clear a room in seconds
- chose above videos first one for the audio (I don't look at video too depressing) and second one for audio and video because this is my favourite of his (Peterson) and we sing both
- sent video to leader
- what I dislike about YouTube: too much space taken up for comments - many are so ridiculous
- have downloaded i-tunes - easy - listening to some jazz right now
- subscribed to RSS and listened to a few minutes of the podcast from Sirsidynix Institute - would like something a little lighter next time please
- having great deal of trouble with audio book from LibriVox and I really only wish to listen to one little poem by Frost or anyone really - I keep clicking on mp3 and ogg files and then it says they're downloading then it says "done" - so where the heck are they downloaded to?
- going home to listen to audio book on cd - would like to figure this out soon though - it would certainly cut down on trips to library etc.
- found audio book - great - LibriVox reader not as good as professional actors - on the other hand buying audio books is $$$$ and time needed to borrow discs from library

- realize this post should be with Flickr week 4 or so but I can't figure out at the moment how to move it there
- very busy catching up with RULA
- will use my flickr to post pictures and let faraway relatives see them
- I can allow only some people to see them, right? hope so.
