My RSS and Blogline Experience

Today I created a Bloglines account without any difficulty. However, the Discovery Exercise asks us to subscribe to at least ten newsfeeds. I only subscribed to three because ten is too many for me to keep up with. Also, I was NOT interested in most of the subcription options.

Today I uploaded my picture into Flickr without seeking assistance from anyone. That was a challenge within itself. It was "trial and error". It took longer than I would have liked but I at least completed the exercise. I guess that's all that matters. I look forward to receiving my second "bling"!

Internet Safety

After reading all the information about Internet Safety, I'm even more paranoid than before. I've always been uneasy about the fact that the whole world has access to my personal information since the Internet became available to any and everyone. It truly "blogglesmymind" whats available on the Internet. One really does need to be extremely careful.

My Blog Set-Up Experience

Today I set up my blog. I'm a week behind (I think) on the 23 Things but am determined to play catch-up! It's important that I lead by example and practice what I preach. Besides, my "Leader" told me this morning, "You WILL do this". If you don't know who my leader is her initials are "RLG".

I became a little frustrated because I couldn't figure out the difference between a "display name" and a "blog title". I decided to use the same for both to see what happened. It seemed to work because I didn't receive any type of message saying I couldn't use the same for both. I think it's pretty catchy don't you? That's about as creative as I can get. I'm not the creative type but have sense enough to have staff who are creative because they make me look good!
