Flickrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

(image is also link to my flickr account)
OK, so, also started a flickr account, something I swore I wouldn't do. But as it's in aid of me passing the subject...here goes.
Flickr seems pretty well organised. It's not somethign I'm used to so I'm still working out where everything is.
I think Flickr would be one of those helpful sites for keeping your friends/family in the loop with your life/holidays/importent events etc. Unlike Facebook which is about finding old friends and checking what they're up to etc, I'd say Flickr would work well as a very impressive photo album.
I can also see the benfits of having your portfolio on Flickr as only people you select in groups can see your images.
I'm big on organisation so I love the making 'sets' function. It makes it easier to find exactly what you're after.
I had some problems with the geotagging...as I couldnt seem to even find wagga on the map O-o I assume this is my poor connection.

Delicious....

linkage

Woot. Got one. Splendid. My old IT teacher told me to get one of these, but I wasn't too keen....and I'm still not to be honest. Because, up till this point, I only had enough different profiles etc that I could remember them all.
I'm still not fully convinced I need it. I'll have trouble remembering how to get to it first let alone everything I've tagged.

Don't knock it till you try it I guess.

Although is seems like the simplest way to keep all your links in one spot I still find it a bit on the complicated side, that you have to lof in and search through to find what you're after anyway...when you could also google it. Depending on how many links you have saved this could take equal time, even with the grouping system.

Delicious uses tags, groups and descriptions to help you organise your links and connect with other people of the same interests. You paste the URL you wish to save into the "make a bookmark" page, give it a few relevent tags and a title and there you go. Perminently saved for you to pick up where ever you happen to be.
But like I said, I still don't see that it's all that much more helpful than a regular search engine.

Week 4 shizdiggle

HA. Totally forgot I ever even made a Yahoo account O-o Aaand can no longer find the password. Brilliant.
Totally forgot a lot of things today....like my external. *sigh*
Not overly a fan of Flickr and Delicious..but hey, what choice do I have. mmm Paragraph.... probably not gonna happen. Unless I put tonnes of spaces in....or dots...eh.

Well..seeing as everyone else is uploading their Deviantart crap...might as well..(RedBubble is better ;P)


yeah...that'll do. =]

Week 3 assignment - Blogs

Writing my first blog, because I have to.
Isn't it brilliant?
I think I make a damned fine blog. *shines*

Also for this part of the assignment I will link you to one Miss Mazzy's blog, on which I have commented.
Also I will link you to Wikipedia's definition of Blogger. Not because I find it remotely interesting...but because I have to. =]

The end.


P.s Mazzy is cool cause we have the same nick name ;) And she lets me look over her shoulder in class. <3
