RSS Feeds

I'm really inspired today Gerald. Completed lesson #8 on creating RSS blog feeds. Listened to Helene's tutorial and then set up a bloglines account. I can see where this will be beneficial in cutting through the time and crud necessary to review blogs of interest at multiple different sites.

Something Interesting about Technology

I must admit that I am only half hearted in participating in this specific blog exercise because I feel it silly to be writing on anything that interests me on technology. Having said that, I was absolutely addicted to blogs, in particular the Huffington Post during this past election. Blogging, even if only partially correct, gets information out to the masses so quickly. Traditional new sources are going to need to become ever more adept at integrating the blogoshpere into their news reporting, or should I say integrate their news reporting into the blogosphere if they wish to remain relevant. So I guess I have more to say on technology than I originally thought. Good bye for now.

Lesson #6 Flickr Fun

Spent 30 minutes out in the world of Flickr Fun. Saw some interesting stuff from a guy name Jim Blumfield also apparently know as Krazydad. Flickr wasn't as intuitive as I had hoped it would be, but was ultimately able to go to some pretty neat pictures from my old home of Madison Wisconsin.

Football Season Week 2

To all my Buckeye friends, good luck with your second less than challenging pre-season game. It will be a nice warm up for next week when your real season begins. As for my Badgers, they aren't much better playing the thundering Marshall herd. Oh well, at least they made a movie about that team. I'm out of here for the week.

Man I'm getting tired. I've either posted three meaningless entries, or typed alot and not gotten any to post. Quite frankly I'm not sure but it's Friday afternoon and I want to go home. Thanks Gerald for getting me started in this craziness. Looking forward to continued participation in the Learn and Play program.
