Not really enjoying RSS. I couldn't get on to Bloglines, it kept telling me there was someone with my email address. VERY frustrating. I finally got on to GOOGLE READER and created an account. I have been reading the tutorials but they don't seem to help. I can't figure out how to input my websites.
Would I use this in school? Probably not, it's too confusing for me, our district has the site blocked, and we don't have enough student computers. (Inner city with not enough funds.)
At this point I'm not sure if I would ever take a Web 2.0 class on line again. Our district offers computer classes and having someone there to answer questions seems more helpful than sitting here becoming frustrated ever night. (Sorry, I'm venting.)

#7 (WEEK 3) Technology
What a strange coincidence that last Friday I spent over an hour online searching for a new digital camera. I ordered it that night, with no fast shipping, and I received it in 3 days. Beware about paying the extra amount to have it shipped faster. Back to the camera: I purchased an Olympus FE-340 with a 5x optical zoom and a 4x digital zoom. I knew I didn't want to spend over $200 since I will be taking it to school for pictures. My track record of personal items stolen at the school go from a camera to a cell phone to a watch so anything over $200 probably wouldn't be a good idea.
I have only gotten as far as taking a few pictures of my dogs and everything seems fine. Purchasing online was very easy, free shipping and $20.00 cheaper than the sale price at Best Buy or Circuit City. Both stores would have matched the online price of the camera but not the online price of the memory card.

I don't think I could have done this without my son showing me what to do. It is so easy when someone knows what they are doing.

My son is helping with my lessons so I'm feeling less frustrated.
