Me, techie?


Honestly, I am not all that technologically savvy. Being a TACkie (that is, a member of the Technology Advisory Committee) has been both an honor and an impetus to improve my knowlege and skills in regards to current and upcoming technologies.

A year ago, I never would have guessed that I would be a primary contributor to the SPL Learning 2.0 blog. So how did I make it this far?

Certainly, it has been a challenge for me. I have felt uncertain, intimidated and yes, even humbled. I have had to say, "I don't know" and, "Can you please help me?" more times than I could count.

But I believe that I have come this far because I have been WILLING to learn. Instead of saying, "I can't," I have sought to learn new things. I see so many people quit before they even get to try a cool new tech tool, simply because of the intimidation they feel. But, believe me, if I can do it, so can YOU!!

You are an inspiration! I also like to believe that if I just try hard enough I can do something--and I'm usually right, but oh boy! sometimes it's a struggle. That just makes the accomplishment sweeter though, doesn't it? P.S. I love Flickr too, because I love scenery!! Flutiemim.blogspot.com
