Downloaded Magisto. I took five pictures of the backroom at our library on our iPAD. Then it was fun to chose the sound track and style to add to the pictures. Five minutes later it came back as a video. Very quick & easy to use!

Thing 13 - Presentations
Downloaded Haiku Deck. Made some slides adding words & pictures. Easy & fun to use. Saw how it could be put on Facebook. Looked at some other Library Haiku Decks. I could possibly use it for an orientation session for our Summer Volunteens or as a promo for library programs.
Thing 12 - Books, Books & More Books
Since I'm a Children's Librarian, I downloaded the iStoryBooks on the iPAD and listened to a story. Fun for kids! Glad to see they will be adding more titles every two weeks. Audiobooks would be good for students who are visiting the public library and need a classic today and all the hardcover/paperback books are checked out.

Thing 11- Library & Reference
Explored the ELM Mobile website. Looked at the MN. history page. Plan Your Research might be overkill. MN. Link would be good if you're not a librarian. The DCL mobile app is good for phones to download ebooks.
Thing 10 - Sharing Photos
Downloaded Instagram on the library iPAD. Found some facebook contacts and looked at their Instagrams. I normally use the camera on my phone to send pictures to people directly and not by Instagram. Or I download pictures off my "real" camera to put on Facebook. I know alot of kids who really like using Instagram. I'm not going to add using this app to my life, as I can see most friend's pictures on their Facebook page.
Thing 9- Taking & Editing Photos
Downloaded Photo Editor by Aviary on the iPad. Had fun editing some photos I took, adding frames, text, stamps, sharpening photos & more. Really fun. One could spend hours doing this! My kids edit alot of their photos for Facebook, Twitter, etc.
