First blog and NLNZ Wiki

So today I embark on my Professional Training Plan in order to become a registered librarian here in NZ.

First thing I need to do is to set this blog account up so I can sign up to the '23 Things for Professional Development' self-directed online blog course which is Task #1 on my Professional Training Plan (PTP). I have also signed up to a wordpress blog with the idea of seeing which is the easier of the two to use - so far this one. - blogspot (wordpress already is telling me I need to update my IE browser which I am unable to do).

Sign up message

"23 Things for Professional Development

Thanks! Your response has been recorded."

So now I presume I wait for confirmation. I am quietly hoping that this '23 Things' blog course is an ongoing course and that I am not joining it at the end of its life (the last sign up seems to be Sep 2011). Therefore awaiting confirmation takes on a little more significance. 

And now I will attempt to link to this blog from my page on the National Library Wiki.
Done. Easy.

Before I attempt to link from the Wiki to the work I have already done on Task #7(1) I am pausing to consider which one of the blog or the wiki would be best to invite other people from the National Library to participate in ... I've got the feeling that I will decide one way, run with it, then find that the other way might be better - such is the way of exploring technologies ...

Couldn't work out how to create a new page on the Wiki so I created a new one on here and pasted the http address onto the Wiki instead. Bingo. Now all I need to do is update/edit the document to actually say what it's meant to say according to the Task instructions.

And I still don't know when the next Wellington LIANZA meeting is ...
