Week 5 - Final Thoughts

I've enjoyed undertaking the five week programme. It's been a good introduction to Web 2.0, and given me insights into web applications I never knew existed and probably never would have found by myself. It was taught at a good pace and with clarity; instructors were pleasant in manner, helpful and approachable.

Week 4 - RSS Feeds and Podcasts

I enjoyed learning about RSS Feeds. I would have liked to set up an RSS Feed to my Blog, but alas, ignorance and a lack of time prevailed. Podcasts seemed interesting, but I'm more of a text-based person.

Week 3 - Flickr and You Tube

Flickr and You Tube seem like great on-line resources - from a slow day at the office to undertaking more serious research and presentations.

Turning Forty

I turn forty in two months time. So much to look forward to. Thinning hair and thickening midriff; creaking knees and aching back. But worst of all is, I think, the effect aging has on character. Irascibility, diminishing tolerance and patience, especially in relation to young people, have silently crept up on me like a disease.

Week Two Wikis

I'm afraid I didn't get very far with my exploration of Wikis. Not enough time, curiousity, or computer skills. Also a disadvantage of the software: Only one person being able to access them at a time.
