Flickr

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

Help!

OK!!!! So I'm not the smartest pea in the pod. I uploaded pictures to my flicker account and then tried to add a couple to a post like this and they don't show up. I have tried three times and I went in to make sure the photos were available to the public----so is there something else I need to try?

Any help is most appreciated.

Frustrated!

RSS Feeds #2

Well I have been blogging and checking my reader and I have come to the conclusion you can spend a lot of time on all these things! Soooo---how do you know what sites are great sites and which ones are not? How do you keep from getting all the junk info in the reader? (I'm sure it is through the links---but is there a way to stop some of it?) And how much time should a person spend on the reader - at work I mean?

Anyway--I have enjoyed what I have done and with a little help from my friends I'm learning to navigate around and find the areas I have created---can you tell I have never blogged or used an RSS reader before?---I would go into more detail, but I'm sure I would bore you all.

The next big thing is the flickr thing---I think I experiencing brain overload

Till next week-
So Long!

RSS Feeds

Well- I have put all of the blogs of the class into a folder on my Google Reader and feel that was quite simple. I'm going to work on other areas hopefully today, but maybe tomorrow, as I do have to get some work done.

I can really see the timesaving factor---I hope I can get the hang of this better. I do really like the learning of new things-I just wish things would stay in the brain a little longer---

Anyway Onward & Upward!!!!

Blogging

Well this is my second posting and I would like to say, it hasn't been toooooo bad getting around and getting familiar with this software. My only real challenge was getting the template I liked to look the way I wanted it to. I really like the parchment paper template, but the choices to change it the way I wanted was not available. So I chose the one I have with a color change (No-I didn't do all of it my self---I have someone close to help me)and I think it will look fine. Maybe a few changes down the road--who knows!

I haven't done anything with the description area--I have to give that some thought, I'm not one to talk (or write) about myself, but everything else I have done so far has been a blast. Learning really can be fun!

Habits

This is my first posting and I'm a little unsure as to how this is going to work---but here goes!

I think my easiest habit would be the PLAY! habit, but that is probably everyones easiest. The next in line would be 'Use Technology To Your Advantage' as I have been working with computers for years (started in 1985) and I do realize how much easier things can be done with them. I also feel the industry is passing me by, as it gets harder for me to figure out how to do things sometimes.(Such as getting started with the class!)

I think the hardest habit would be the 'Teach/Mentor Others' habit as I find it difficult to make people understand what I'm trying to say, therefore I have become lazy in that respect and don't even try sometimes.

Overall I was intrigued by the 7 1/2 Habits and will try to review these often and work them into my everyday life.
