I had conversations with others re the 23 mobile things and my granddaughter was impressed that I was on Instagram .i was amazed at all the things you can do with an iPhone. I found setting up the blog frustrating why not just tell us there's an app for it  I might participate In another 23 things depending on what it was about. The program forced me to take the time to learn some new things
