Thing 1
I did manage to create this blog and the avatar. Exporting the avatar was a bit challenging as others have noted and creating it wasn't as straight -forward as the instructions on Yahoo! read. I'm hopeful I will gain better Web 2.0 skills as I go along!

Hi Everyone,
I'll really excited to be part of the "23 Things on a Stick" web-based course. I created my first ever avatar! I really need this jump start in Web 2.0 tools and am really looking forward to it!
I look forward to this new and unique learning environment for me.
