FINDING FEEDS #9
Am trying to move on, but still find I am losing myself reading blogs and time seems to fly. Have come to the realization that what we are doing is bringing together a like community, and being able to keep up to date with what is happening within the community that our search may take us, on a global scale. A voice for the people.
Obviously the amount of information out there is huge so that having feeds of our choosing on our blog will alert others of a like mind to that blog. I found Google easy to navigate but I do like the format of Technorati and was simpler to add a feed to my blogroll.
Found a blog the other day on Technorati about a ukulele playing storyteller who published blogs on songs he uses with his ukulele. I thought they might be useful for a beginner with her 'rhyme time', so copied them for her. That same day a woman teaching a young child guitar came in to photocopy a song, no copyright was infringed, and was very pleased that I had another couple that where exactly what she was after. Will have to find him again and subscribe to his blog.

RSS FEEDS #8
Found creating feeds on bloglines not that difficult but trying to add a link to my blog has been a nightmare. I seem to be going around in circles and have wasted a lot of time reading and re-reading the instructions but end up none the wiser. All I want to do is add a feed icon onto my blog through blogroll???? Oh well, I'm sure all will become clear in time.

I HAVE COME A LONG WAY #7
I learnt to type on a manual typewriter thirty years ago and not long after electric typewriters were introduced which, I never had the need to master. Library catalogues consisted of cards and a lot of clerical work was carried out by a library assistant, so the need to learn was not there. Along comes the computer and was very reluctant to learn this technology but did as I needed to and could see the benefits. Now we have the Internet which is another advancement that enhances my job and something else to master. I am enthralled with what there is to learn on this course and it is slowly dawning on me that I will have a need for this knowledge, so am very grateful for this tool in which to navigate uncharted waters.

Testing 1 2 3 #5
Have uploaded photos from memory stick for the first time and with some help editing the photo in paint after giving up on flickr. Been a very long process and not sure what I have learnt as I have been all over the place. Tried flickr again and am frustrated so will give it a rest and collect my thoughts. Tried following instructions from tas666 but still drew a blank. Am excited by the possibilities of these sites and what is to come, just hope I can give it the time as I am easily distracted and end up going in circles. As you can tell by this movie I am still learning how to use my digital camera. #7
