Still Working on the Social Aspects of Class

So far, I got everything done that I'm supposed to. I think. I had a really good time playing with the widgets. I still can't get over how many of them there are. Part of the assignment was to get all the class blogs together in Netvibes. I got all the RSS feeds from the class blogs except for 2 of them, which I couldn't get to work, but I think, now that I'm thinking about it, the http is missing.....maybe. I'll try again later. Anyway, I'm now trying to keep them all together and organized like the multimedia class bookmarks are all together on diigo. This is fun stuff, once you figure out some of the basics. It's quite annoying when I'm almost done with something and then it's just gone. While I was doing the feeds for the class blogroll, that seemes to work fine for most. When I was trying to add my own earlier, it didn't work. Now the RSS logos were on the sites I was using and the message would say this link is not working of currently not....something. Now, I can't remember what it said.

When I was trying to do my work history on Linkedin.com, it's sad, but I have to dig out my resume from like 10 years ago, because I haven't updated it since then. I've always gotten jobs by recommendations and never really needed one. And, since I am still in college, for the fifth year and don't per se, have a career, I'm still like a student going from place to place. My forever home for animals is, I guess not a career choice, but it's just a dream I've always had. So, technically, it's not a job and wouldn't even be like a non profit organbization. It would be just my home and my land and lots of it. I've strayed off the subject, and I do tend to ramble often. Most of these sites are a great deal of fun...and informational. I think Netvibes and diigo are very cool. I'm still playing around with everything. You just can't learn everything there is to know in such a short amount of time. I'm still not sure if I'm doing the hyperlinking right. I thought mine came out wrong last week, because I forgot to highlight, but now I'm not sure.

Does the blog assignemtn from look the same after it is submitted as it did when I filled it out or typed it out. If so, what the heck am I doing that is incorrect.

  1. Aileen,
    It looks like you are figuring out the different applications. I was also struggling with setting up my resume'.
