Week 5

So Wikis - well I don't really trust them as any yahoo can create an account & post info.
They're good for quickly looking up info though.

I like how a group can posst stuff such as times of metings, links to other subjects, reviews of books etc... A library could easily create one & keep it updated, while encouraging patrons to post about their xperiences etc.....

A major drawback is the site may be blocked by work pcs.

Week 4

Well, had a look around Flikr (when I wasn't being blocked by the council) and found a few cool images. I especially like this one - it's of Viggo Mortensensen as Aragorn - http://www.flickr.com/photos/23942175@N06/2305808396/

I don't have a working digital camera to take photos with, just a mobile that you can upload pictues from, but is a hassle to do.

Tags are like subject headings, if you close an eye and squint hard! There's a list of the most popular available on the Flikr site.

Not sure why some pages were blocked while others from the same searccch loaded straight away.

Week 3

So, pictures - yes!

cat pictures

Ths from a site I check daily as new pictures arwe continually being posted.
www.icanhascheezburger.com

The site gives a linkto add to your blog by copying and pasting, but it didn't work for me so I typed it out. Hope it works!

Week 2 - continued

So I was given a bit of help to create my blogroll

This is a good way to get info matching your keywords sent to you, cutting out things you're not interested in and reducing the time spent surfing aimlessly and getting sidetracked.
I feel I'd have to spend quite a bit more time playing around with RSS feeds before I truly could grasp them. When I have more time to spare, I'll look into setting one up to send me interesting tidbits - I don't have enough time to devote to playing now, so trying to avoid internet sites!

Week 2

The tutorial wouldn't load for me so will do some work and try again later.
