Merlin

I subscribed to Merlin, but I had to use my library email address to verify who I was. I have reviewed it , but I don't know if I will have time to use it after the 23 things are completed. So far, the problem I realize with all of this is time to play around in everything, so that you don't lose what you have learned. Most of the folks that I have talked to that already did the "23 Things" didn't really use it after they completed the training. But, I am determined to finish.

Week 4 - RSS

I enjoyed this one somewhat. I am still a little uncomfortable, but I feel as if I am accomplishing something on a weekly basis and that feels wonderful. I asked my computer savvy kids about blogs, flickr and rss. Noone was aware of them. They had heard some things, but never used. That made me feel good!!!! My blogline is public at http://www.bloglines.com/public/amfonta.

Technology

Well, I have completed some of Week (3) exercises. 1. Set up Flickr acct. 2.Posted a comment on someone elses blog.
It is 8:50pm and my head is hurting. I can't post a picture and connect Flickr and my blog. I have looked at examples and I still am lost. What if I have no pictures of my own as yet. Can I just get a nice scene from my computer and post that to my blog? If someone out there hears me, please answer. In the meantime, I will be in front of my laptop crying.

Flickr

I am once again lost, but I did manage to register in yahoo for Flickr. Now, I have Google, Yahoo and Hotmail. I was perfectly satisfied with Hotmail and one password. But, I am going to continue until all 23 things are completed. Now, I need to remember where I put that sheet that tells me what I have completed.
