23 Things - Assignment #4 Part 2
I forgot to mention my name is now "Judicious" Flora Johnson. Coincidently, Flora is my mother's first name. Oddly enough, she is also a Libra. Hmmm. Wasn't this supposed to be about me?

23 Things - Assignment #3
This assignment was tough for me. Aside from misunderstanding one of the instructions (So that's why it didn't work!), many of the sites I visited are either under construction or do not offer RSS feeds. It took some time but I think I found a few good ones.
After signing up for the Library journal I searched for sites to satisfy my photography fix, especially travel shots. I chose Jordo Media who have about 2,000 of them in their photo gallery, most of which I will never have time to view. I will check them out at length later but I must say that I don't think they will have as many photos as my favourite Google Images, which is where I get my for wallpaper for my laptop.
For my history passion I signed up with BBC History Magazine but only their future special events are available on RSS so if I ever visit Britain again maybe I will go when they have an exhibition of something historical. Then I chose Random House new releases for upcoming books in different areas of history. This one looks good. Lastly, as I am studying history in university and focusing my studies on World War II and the Holocaust, I was lucky to find the RSS feed for "Holocaust & Genocide Studies" one of many Oxford Journals put out by the Oxford University Press website. This one will be a winner for sure.
