As work has been pretty useless lately, I've decided to take advantage of that free subscription to Lynda.com I have. The site is amazing if you haven't tried it out. I decided to learn up on some social media stuff, since it's apparently, the future. I know pretty much all there is to know about Facebook (although, there's a 3 hour course on Facebook so maybe I should brush up), but I never really gotten YouTube or Tumblr. I'm happy to say I do now. You can do so many cool things with them, that I've never realized. On top of those, I've gotten some cool new info on PowerPoint 2010, learned how to create a style guide and market a company on the web. Then there's my queue which is pretty much filled to the brim with courses on Microsoft 2010, Adobe products, Moodle (not even sure about this product but it said it was used in classrooms so that'll be helpful : ), and about a dozen other social media-y type courses.
I'm not sure I'll get to use these new skills anytime soon, but when a big time charity finally hires me to do outreach or a school wants me to re-write their technology curriculum, I'll be ready!
