Thank heavens for really simple tutorial on how to set up a bloglines account. Once I really got on a roll it was hard to stop myself. There are so many interesting sites out there once you start looking the possibilities are enormous. Hopefully I will benefit from reducing the aimless wandering which usually accompanies my ventures into cyber space.
This link should lead you to my public bloglines account.

Technology # 7

I find it truly amazing watching the children around me embracing technology so easily . Webcams, ipods, WiFi are as much fun as colouring books and dress-up dolls. If only I had been able to use a computer when I was very young I am sure I would be a much better typist, emailer, blogger, cataloguer......
Being shown how to rectify computer glitches by a 10 year old is a strange experience. I console myself with the knowledge that his father is paid to be a computer whiz.
I am hoping that Learning 2.0 will help me look at new technology with the same type of enthusiasm as a child and have the same sort of fun

Thing # 6 more flickr fun

Fantastic tools

This is absolutely fantastic. They have really made this process user friendly ( or at least for this user) My mind is spinning with ideas. Who said you can't teach an old nana new tricks

Trading Card

Still experimenting with Flickr. I seem to go round in circles a great deal. 15 minutes a day to play with all these new things is'nt nearly enough. Must get myself some new photos too.

Had a bit of difficulty tying the pictures to the previous post but now I have it mastered ( fingers crossed) there will be no stopping me. Well maybe mastered it is a small exageration as I haven't obtained quite the result I expected.

Photo fun

My topic for photo display is reading Library books (of course) at Nan's house on the weekend. Grandkids and lttle dogs alike enjoy books and photos, or photos of books or is it books of photos? Its all a bit confusing when you are trying to get the little poto show ponies to act naturally and not give those cheesy grins for the camera. Yes even the little dog.

Late Start

Due to a series of unfortunate events (with apologies to Lemony Sniket) I have made a late start to Learning 2.0.
Nevertheless, I have launched with enthusiasm into the concept of life-long learning. The process is habitual but the handle is new.
By completing the first three activities of the 23 "things", I have already learnt some new tricks - as indicated by the fact that this blog exists!!
