Subscribe To Blogs

I have been a huge fan on a personal level of blogs for a long time. It is the opportunity to keep in touch with those who in my case live far away. I have been able to follow the birth of babies, birthday parties, engagement parties and other events that I have not been able to attend for whatever reason. I am now using blogs as part of my teaching program both to develop staff knowledge and confidence of technology and to expose students to the wonderful world of blogging.

RSS

This is fantastic. What a great way to keep up with things. I love that when I started adding pages that it gave me the option of adding it to my iGoogle page. I can see that this will a be a fantastic way of keeping track of frequently accessed pages when programing and on a personal level.

Facebook

As metioned in my previous post I prefer Facebook to other social networks. I am a Facebook addict and am on it daily. I love the fact that with just a click I am able to become connected with friendds and family all over the world. The instant chat aspect takes away from the talking to a computer theroy. I am unable to get a grasp on Twitter and I have tried several times. I just dont understand why we need to be that connected....however I know plenty of friends who are constantly telling me that I need to learn to tweet. More practise is needed I think.

My Space

I am a fan of My Space...however I prefer Facebook. In saying that I follow alot of my favourite band using My Space. I origanally started using My Space a number of years ago as a way of keeping up with my little brothers antics. I found it very easy to access and navigate and that the aspect of personalisation is fantastic. I now find that it is a younger persons place. Very effective though and I think that it really just does come down to personal choice.

Library Thingy

I love readin book reviews...especially about a book that I have read or am reading. This is fantastic. I can see that this is a useful tool for students to keeo track of the books they have read during the year and as a chance to enter a virtual world and share their opinions. Fantastic
