Yee HAA!! It worked, after much Brain-Strain & "middle of the night" thinking I attempted the widget again and success!! The 'peaks & troughs' of this techno ride is amazing!!

I am having trouble with my Flickr photos, they keep dissappearing from where I put them on Picture Australia Our Town. This is the second time it has happened. One day they were there then next thing gone, very irritating as I gave the site address to family members to check out??? Also should be in Technorati site under nswpln2008 tags??? WHY???

I go on holidays next week so have just skimmed through the rest of the course, when I return (refreshed & rejuvenated!!) I will try again. I have enjoyed participating & am overwhelmed at the incredible "things" you can do. I have found it a little frustratingly difficult at times to do some of the tasks. Interruptions being the main problem as I do not have a computer at home and feel 15 mins is too short a time to allocate to it. Also found myself getting lost checking out all the different things. Loved reading other participents blogs on how they were coping with the course and very impressed with some of the blogs designs and their ability to do all the tasks. I feel that at least I'll know what a customer is referring to if I am asked any questions regarding the different applications. Thank you to the staff for their help & hard work in setting this course up.

Well have been trying to add my librarything as a widget with no success.

I have been very busy, received a transfer of a large number of books from one of our branches so have only just been able to get back to the course.

Delicious - enjoyed it & feel it will be very beneficial, tried linking it to my blog not sure if it worked. Still struggling a bit with these things, find it a bit difficult with so many interruptions.

Enjoyed the Sutherland Shire site - very interesting and a good example of the application. Got "lost" in it!!

Have skipped a little bit of the next lesson will need a bit more "thinking" time to get on to the previous bit. Love the Librarything. Except experiencing blank spots as far as my favourite authors go!!! Wish there was just a BIG list to scroll down.

Finally managed to RSS some ABC info however couldn't manage to get the PowerHouse Museum Photo of the day????? Couldn't seem to find the RSS symbol anywhere. Did send it to my Gmail account though, maybe that is where I need to send it here from??? Had a little more time today, not so stressed so was able to concentrate more which helped.

Now for something totally for ME!!!

Well here goes attempting to embed a video here, thank you for the encouragement & tips Kathleen A. It worked!!! Thanks again!!

Am feeling frustrated, irritated and extremely confused!!! Finding trying to embed a video into my blogsite so difficult. No instructions anywhere to follow (or none that I can find anyway!!) All these accounts we are having to open is also extremely confusing for me. I don't have much time available at work & what time I do have is full of interruptions which makes it hard to concentrate & understand. I guess I am also of the "old" school as far as learning is concerned & like a full set of notes with explanations of 'why" & 'how' to do things to refer to at all times in the process of learning. I agree totally with 'patiencerewarded' who asked why changes have to be so rapid. Of everything that we have learnt so far the only one I guess I have any interest in is Flickr. I have a very full life now & just want to spend more time pursuing the interests I have now. I guess I am also a very private person & find it a bit confronting being "out there".

Wikis. I have contributed in a very minor way to the one on my town, just added a word (safe) to the description of our town. Did enjoy this one. Hope everyone adds facts to their town ones. I will investigate other facts to add, eg annual rainfall & temperature range etc.

PS. Here's a photo of our towns lovely main street.

I just cannot understand RSS, nothing I do makes it work!!! Am starting to find opening all these "new" accounts very confusing. Don't like RSS one bit. Don't think I would ever have the need for it either. everything I searched for seemed to be USA based, I would prefer Australian based sites. Can I go on to the next bit???
