Hello again

Just signing in again after several years!
Will try to add posts a little more regularly now.

Thing #35 Micro or mini blogging

Started looking at Twitter but think I must be missing something. 

Couldn't find the COB library Twitter account to look at. And what's it all got to do with my mobile phone?

Will have to try again later!

Thing #34 Using the Web for better health

Found Fitday a very interesting site. The only problem is that to really get anything out of it you need to be honest in what information you put in!

Also some of the choices of foods etc. are not exactly the right type - very hard to be really specific.

I thought the report on whether you are getting the right nutrients etc. could be quite useful.

Thing #33 Express yourself through online art

Found Mr Picassohead quite fun but now can't find my picture again to try and put it into my blog. Sent it to myself at work so I will try again from there.

Thing #32 Online file storage

Tried to use esnips but was doing this at home and could not upload any files as it needed Adobe flashplayer 9 and I could not get this to download (or do anything in fact)

Then tried box.net and was able to upload some photos and send them to myself at work, as I       didn't know anyone elses's email!

Tried to upload a recipe as well but am unable to view the actual text so may need furthet work on this.

Thing # 31 - Get organized with Plaxo

Found home page quite complicated, but using the calendar and task list was quite fun.
Could see various uses of sharing calendars among staff eg. between teams or job share partners so each knows where the others are up to in their various tasks, projects etc

Thing # 30 I'm in ur library

bunneh

Not really a cat but couldn't resist this gorgeous photo from Flickr's Lolcats.

I agree some Lolcats are quite funny, but on the whole really can't see a lot of use for them in the library. Also I find the 'baby' language quite irritating in many cases. Maybe I just had too much grounding in 'good' grammar!
