Social Networking

Ok I am probably going to flunk this assignment. I did not create an account, but did look at the Sno-Isle one. I have often been called anti-social and those who know me well know I get very excited when I am going to be "home alone" and it is on rare occasion when I go out with a group. I am more the one on one type. I ventured into myspace as it could be set to "private". This feels like my personal space is being invaded. It gives too much info to the whole world as to where my interests lie. I am basically a very private person. I can see where it would be useful to educators, etc, but is nothing I need in my life. I do thank the Sno-Isle team for introducing us to what is out there on the web and have learned quite alot from all these assignments, just don't feel comfortable with this one.

wikki

I have looked up things on wikipedia in the past, but had no idea you could create your own wikkis and how useful they could be. What a great thing for the workplace as far as procedures. Here in MP it seems things are changing constantly and I am always looking back at notes to see what gets this label what doesn't etc. If we had a wikki on Material Processing procedures it would be so easy to keep it updated.
My daughter works for Best Buy and is on a business trip in Texas this week. When we talked last night she told me they had to do a group project today on how and what there is available out there to keep familys in touch with their loved ones in Iraq.....a family wikki....Jarod (or whoever your loved one may be) would have one page to go to and find out what is going on at home rather than reading and responding to several emails. They have so little computer time over there. This technical age is a marvel!

You Tube, etc

Ok I am getting way behind on these assignments. It all started when I tried to watch some videos on youtube. Apparantly so was everyone else. I felt like I spent way too much time when I finally did get the videos to run and never found anything really clever like this and that always seems to. As you can see from one of my previous posts I do know how, if only I remember next time around.

As for hula and fancast I will probably never use them altho I know a couple people who work night shifts that like to catch some of their shows the next day.
