I Googled my name and the first hit was my LinkedIn account. Then followed Facebook. JustGiving was next in the list and it was nice to see I wasn't just a gossip! But Twitter came hot on it's heels so I guess I am!!!
I was sorry not to see this blog...then realised I have used only my first names for it, and not my surname. Now I see why consistency is best. It would be much better to link all my activity on the internet.
I also need to create links to my social networking on my blog.
Nothing came up that I wouldn't want employers etc to see. I'm very careful what I say in public forums...that's an age thing I guess! At work we are reminded to be very careful how we use social networking as we work with young people (although for them ANYTHING goes on Facebook etc!)
If you are reading this post can I ask you to comment on what you see on my blog and what you think it says about me. Who do you think 'Paulamarie' is?

It's Friday!!!
We've made it to Friday...and the sun is shining!!!
I have enjoyed setting up my blog, reading other blogs, following some and even acquiring one follower myself!
However, IT issues at work seem to prevent me leaving posts on people's blogs...or is it just me being stupid?
I've tried to comment on several blogs, including cpd23, but none of my messages appear :-(
Any ideas, anyone?
From the blogs I read it seems we are a very diverse, interesting bunch of people...many experts, but thankfully some novices like me!
When I join you all on Monday I will have been told that morning (in a restructure meeting) if I still have a job, and if so what the new job description entails...
Must make sure I have a GOOD weekend...same to you all xxx

WOW!
I've just had a look at some blogs...and they all look so professional! I can see I have a lot to learn.
Day one...and we're off!!!
I'm a very old librarian(!) with 30+ years experience of the usual things...but not much knowledge of the 23 Things! Well, not the techy Things!
I rely a lot on my younger staff for that!
However, I now own an iPhone...use Twitter and Facebook quite a lot...and am ready to be dragged into the 21st century (gently, please!)
Blogging is completely new to me and I need all the help I can get with it! I welcome any hints and tips.
I'm looking forward to meeting new 'friends'
Back soon with new blogs...hopefully!
