Week 3 Thing 7

I have to admit, learning Flickr, seeing the interaction between Yahoo, Google, blogspot, Flickr, etc. has helped me to see a somewhat bigger picture. I like Flickr, and am also looking at Ritzpix.com to try to figure out where to archive my family photos. We have a digital camera, and it appears the next step is to become organized about the whole process including having the pictures printed for my photo albums. Do I archive them just on my computer? Do I send them online through Ritz to be printed? Do I just do it myself-- although so far the time and machine costs of that seem great--I am afraid that we will just keep putting it off and never doing it regularly. Am I standing in both worlds here--is that technologically competent?

Following through with Week 3, Thing 5--here is another uploaded picture to Flickr that I have place on my blog.

Okay, Okay, I think I may have figured it out. It does take awhile, I do think that instructions could be clearer, either here or on the Flickr site.

Week 2 Thing 3 Set up your own blog and Week 2 Thing 4 Register your blog

I have succesfully created this blog! Ye-hah! I loved watching the 7 1/2 minutes video. The one I can most relate to is beginning with an end in mind (library school anyone?) and the hardest for me is to play! Somehow I have taught myself not to and I have to get back at it!

This is being edited in September. I remember the piece about e-mailing myself from Week 2 Thing 4 but now can't find it. I have been registered with BCPL.

Week 1 Thing 2 Pointers from lifelong learners

Pointers from lifelong learners: I consider myself one but loved the inspiration!

About this program--great to get started! Thanks for providing this learning opportunity, I needed a nudge : )
