TASK 23 - FEEDBACK ON PROGRAM

Free at Last!!!!!!

Must admit had my reservations as to how these 23 Things would benefit, I was a nonbeliever but I now I see the light.

Big "thank you" to the developers of this program for the opportunity to not only learn about the new technologies but also to be able to use them in my very own blog. Something I never thought I would do. Elementary start for me but I will continue to refine and develop my skills. It's all so exciting for a monkey like me.

I love most of the applications, but my favourites are: Podcasts, iGoogle, Google Scholar, MyLibraryThing.

On the downside. It was at times frustrating when sites were blocked or videos were not available, but on the whole - excellent way to learn the new web 2.0 tools. More importantly it will benefit me in my work.

I am now a convert of "cloud computing".

TASK 22 - INSTANT MESSENGING

Added Google Talk to my iGoogle and had a chat with a work colleague. Not a feature that I will be using in the future however handy to know that the application exists and have added it to the memory bank.

TASK 21 - PODCAST

Subscribed to a number of Radio National Podcasts. Of particular interest to me are the Rupert Murdock Boyer Lectures. Found his lecture on technology excellent. What a wonderful invention, will listen to all lectures in full when I have more time.

TASK 19 - PET ON WIKI

Added my pet Serpi to the WIKI pet page. Keep him at my front door - an excellent security guard. Does not strike unless provoked
