The week that was

Do we have the time, the knowledge, or even the interest in understanding or even using new technologies? Personally, its not for me to be wasting large quantities of precious time on them( and let's face it, time is precious!) as I have so much more to do. Sometimes learning something new is like chasing your own tail. Round and round I go but going nowhere until finally I catch it. I'm a bit perplexed though with all these new technological terms that I should be learning. The list of web sites and tools that are becoming more and more heavily used in the workplace and at home are overloading. There is no doubt that Email is convenient, but what has happened to face to face communication? Where has everyone gone? They are all sitting in front of the monitors of the world, buying crap on ebay or talking to some weirdo in "my space".

PHEW!!!!! This took me an hour to make, but it was worth it. There are a lot of fun stuff you can do on Flickr. I really like the idea of massups. They are great marketing tools. I used Trade Card Maker for this. Have a look at Search Chrystal as well.

Time is of the essence.

My question for all the people out there doing this course is: WHO HAS THE TIME?!!!! Just from my own personal experience so far, 2.0 is sooooo time consuming. Who are all these library people around the place working so hard on this. Don't they have any other work to do?????

Brain Pain!!!!

MY BRAIN IS HURTING!!!! So much information, so much learning going on!!!!

The eyes are the windows to the soul so they say. Have you ever considered how many times a day you look into someone elses eyes? What do you see? The joy, the pain, the love, the heartache? Or perhaps the strength, the endurance, the spirit of a person. Stop and think for a moment as you look at these eyes, what a life they may have seen. It gives you pause for thought, doesn't it?

the beginning

So here we are!!! blogging away not really knowing what I am doing. feeling quite unwell and not really in the mood. Have regrets about signing up and just generally feeling very apathetic. Hopefully as the weeks progress my demeanor will change. It will be interesting to see. One thing I must add: I never knew what a blog was until now. So I am learning already!!!!
