Thing 29: Finishing up

Yeah! I think if we'd started with making the blog, and adding some easy fun stuff, I might have stuck closer to the schedule. I'm comfortable with the RSS feeds, UTube is fun and easy, Library Thing is neat. I'm not much into the Flcker, except some of the travel mashups. I love some of the techno games and gizmo's, like http://webneko.net/?kuramecha (check out the kitty in the corner:) It's too much work to keep up a MySpace and Blogger.

I enjoyed skimming through the other participant's blogs. Dark, light, polka-dots...something for everyone. It's easy to tell who's had fun with it!

Thing 23: UTube

I tried 3 times to compose on the same post by the video and each time both disappeared. Not sure what I doing wrong, so I'll compose on a 2nd post.

UTube has a lot to offer. I enjoy surfing the 100 most popular videos on my RSS feed. The hotforwords videos are a favorite. Pimped up etamology.

This video has music, anime and feeling!

RSS Feeds 2, as well

Recently, I noticed myself looking for the little orange rectangles in websites that caught my eye. Hopscotching, link to link to link, hm....is this interesting, let's add a link. Did you link Hotforwords.com 's feed? (Is this a foreign language?) Philology is the study of language and words. Intelligence can be fun!

Thing 9: RSS Feeds

I've had an RSS feed on Google for a few months now. The managers brought in an expert to give us a quick one hour jump start on the ins and out of RSS feeds. I started out with just the suggested feeds: News, video, humor, etc. But, I quickly added Harry Potter, Jim Butcher, and stopped receiving all that extranious who-rah.
