Week 6 #13 Tagging

I went to to del.icio.us. Since someday I might actually get a computer, it would be nice to set up an account with all my web sites so I won't have to keep track in a note book and enter the site into two "favourites". I am not planning to do any research extensive enough to require the amount of management del.icio.us. Besides, with a deep and ingrained distruse of electrons, I can see massive amounts of work disapearing in an electronic hiccup. They've done it before.

Week 5 # 12 Library Elf-- Preliminary

I have not been able to access Elf, the site won't come up. From what I have heard and from what I read about what it does, the program is unnecessary for Harris Co patrons. I am under the impression that Horizon does that. That being said why would any security minded person put their personal information on the internet do do something that can easily be managed on your own. I will update when I can get on the website

Week 5 # 11 Library Thing

Now this one is good! Easy, functional and useful!! I will keep this account, and should I ever get a computer, actually use it.(if I ever get all the other stuff done I need to do!)

Week #5 Image Generators

Here is my avatar I made in Meez. Cute, huh. It's fun, (and being the frivoulus person that I am, that's reason enough, but really... what's it good for? I tried several others, that were listed. It reminded me of playing with paper doll without the boredom of having to cut the clothes out first. The URl is of course http://www.meez.com/

Week 4 # 9 Finding Feeds

I'm obviously not in tune with these people. Feedster, and Topix seemed limited except for
political junkies. Syndic8 made absolutely no sense to me. Technorati was the easiest to use, and while the various blogs were interesting, there wasn't anything that I wanted to read from these people again.

Week 4 #8 RSS feeds

Been there done that exercise. It's okay I suppose, but I've never been much of a news junkie that I can't wait til regular news times for it to intrude on my life. Besides, they don't post the weather/flood information I do need. They don't post when MY street is flooded, and finding out when my portion of my river is going up or down has to be figured out from coy little hints gathered from multiple sources. Any other news can wait til 10:00. Although, the joke a day, the word a day, and the quote a day are fun.

Week 3 Flickr-Pixar- Camels 2

This is totally frustrating. First I couldn't get the pictures to load on Pixar, then they wouldn't change, then I can't get them to save to this blog. I am having SO much fun...
