cpl 2.0 bloglines

I found it really easy to create an account. I am still learning how to select sites that I want to stay current with. I found some sites were very easy to add and others more challenging. I am excited at the prospect of using this in my personal life.

CPL 2.0 Google

I like and enjoy Google images. It is easy to search and a large assortment of images come up. A drawback is that depending on a person's need, the images can be too small to be useful. I would definitely recommend it to friends, colleagues and customers.

CPL2.0 Facebook

I can see Facebook would be useful in keeping in touch with family and friends in far away places - current news, photos, etc. Personally, I find it time consuming and definitely not my first choice. I use e-mail and text to meet my needs for staying connected to family in Toronto and Melbourne, Australia.

2.0 Wikipedia

I spent a lot of time looking for an article to edit. I finally found one that had a grammatical error. The actual editing was very easy - even too easy - click on "edit this page", make the change and save! This emphasized the potential for incorrect info being in an article.

2.0 Best Websites & Delicious

I enjoyed re-discovering the Best Websites on Delicious. I found info links to information that I had used extensively in the past and thought was gone. The tags and bundles on the right hand side made it easy to use. Sadly, the link to find my Alderman did not work but the MLA link did. When I go directly to Delicious.com, I find it overwhelming, hard to find credible info and the colour of the text hard to read. I am excited to start using Best Websites again to answer customer questions.
