Week Three : #7 Technology

Probably the most difficult aspect of 'technology' is it's ever changing nature. As I type, there is probably something new being created somewhere.

I've always thought I had a general knowledge of things technical, however I'm discovering through this adventure there so much more. Sharing of images, uploading, downloading of photos etc., I knew existed, what I didn't know was how I could use them. Through Flickr I was able to create a badge, by using the search terms 'owls' I now have the badge you can see at the left hand side of my page.

The blogs (Learning 2.0) I have visited are very impressive, and this has helped me to understand more about what I am doing.

What next I'm not sure, however the way things are I'm sure it will be something new, well new to me at least.

Managing Posts - Settings

Thanks to Webgurl I was able to change the time etc on my blog to the correct time zone. Thanks Webgurl (Someone needs to tell her how to spell 'girl', however it's not going to be me!)

Week Three: Flickr

Until now I had never heard of Flickr, however, I was able to download a free photo and add it to my post about poor Collingwood with little hassle.
My next step will be to take a digital photo and upload it to Flickr and add to my blog. Sounds impressive.
If only I can workout how to change the time on my blog, as I'm sure you don't really think I'm up at 4.00am blogging away, 5.00am maybe, but not 4.

P.S I think I've done it!!
P.S.S No I haven't.

Week Three: Money Saved

The unfortunate loss by Collingwood on Friday night means I have saved myself a little money (Alot of money actually) and I've got Saturday free. That's what I thought until my 11 year old informs me that I have to prepare for our annual family grand final party and sit through Geelong V's Port Adelaide, what fun. I'm really not your true one eyed Collingwood supporter, however watching Cats V's Port doesn't appeal. The things we do!!!

Week Two: Poor Magpies

I spent 10 minutes trying to get the right search terms to add current news items about Collingwood and the finals. Instead one of the stories is about a lady who paid $600 to an exterminator to free her of the pesky magpies (the feathered kind) who were tormenting her pitbull!! Go figure. :-)

Week One: I've Done It!!!

I think I've done it, a blog that is (sounds a little rude) well I've done something whether it's what the author intended I'll discover in good time.
