Seven Things - Web 2.0

Here is my first entry for Seven Things - Web 2.0. This class can be taken as part of staff development requirements. When enrolled in the fall, there just didn't seem to be enough hours in the school calendar weekend to do it and also my part-time job as a working violinist, so it was dropped. 

I get so caught up during the year it's really difficult to tear myself away from school daily; I was starting to leave later and later. After school is also the only time I can get things done without being interrupted dozens of times. Which I do not mind at all and for which I am grateful, because I have a job. However,it also takes days to do something that used to take hours with a second librarian at Kimball HS. As a book rep told me, there are schools in California that do the same job without a second librarian or a media assistant with triple the enrollment!

So hopefully, I'll have some more time to do what is required as well as play around more with the Web 2.0 Tools since I've had time to look at them more.
I do have a question for everyone, though: has anyone in this class monetized their blog, and has it been beneficial?
                                                  
I tried to have red background and a blue text but it only came out as red lines. So this is red text with a blue background.  Also the first paragraph is Georgia, the second is Verdana and the third is  Trebuche.  The first paragraph is Normal text size, the second large, and the third largest.
