#7 Technology of today - Email & Blogs

"What is the use of a book, without pictures or conversations?"

A Venetian Alley


I have always been a fan of the postal service - love sending letters and love receiving them. Technology hasn't so much changed that as added a new dimension. On a recent (well alright last year) overseas trip I was constantly on the lookout for Internet Cafes. Being on the move a lot of the time, staying in touch was easy - no more 'Poste Restante' I could share the day's events 'NOW'


One of my companions from that holiday is now living in Japan and she is able to share her experiences with a wide circle of friends from Melbourne to New York via her Blog - complete with photos! How cool is this.

#6 -3rd party tools

"Read the directions and directly you will be directed in the right direction" Hmmm well maybe...

Have been flicking through Flickr again and thought I might like to have a go at a calendar using those 3rd party tools or maybe even a Trading card (but discarded this last thought as my cat is far more photogenic than yours truly.)

The only thing not clear at this stage is whether a cost is involved - there is no such thing as a free lunch is there Virginia. Until tomorrow...

Photo finish

This took a long time and a number of attempts but with a little help from my friends we triumphed and published. This is my girl Steph!

post #3 Rabbit

"Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting."
Have just been exploring Flickr! By the time I work my way round the site - I forget what I'm meant to be doing - so many distractions, and, I seem to be setting up all these accounts! I have put in two profiles - Goodness knows where the first one went to, and, I have photos on my USB from my hard drive but that's it at the moment. Am very impressed with the work of some of my colleagues!

Getting there!

Curiouser and curiouser! As the king said,"Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end:then stop -(or maybe not - who knows where this Blog will lead)

First post plus one
