23 things -

10:23

On my way to re-inventing myself as a digital native. This has been a great opportunity to embrace technology. It is getting newer while I (sadly) am just getting older. Can't afford to ignore it but don't expect to become expert in everything.

Week 10: Social Networking and Summary

10:21

Have created a Twitter account. Tweeting!

10:22

See earlier posts about Facebook.

Week 9: Podcasts, Video & Downloadable audio

9:19.
Youtube! Gotta love it. For the AFL fans - Hitler rants about the 2009 AFL All Australian team.

On a more serious note, there are also lots of educational videos available.

Week 8: Google World

17: Google Maps and Google Docs

You could really become THE armchair traveller with Google Maps. L'Aquila (Italy) looks nice or perhaps Port Vila. Great to preview the next holiday destination. I wish!

My daughter has to use Google docs frequently for collaborative assignments. I particularly like the template designs and have just found one that I can use for a newsletter that I send out to nursing staff at Mater. This has been a worthwhile exercise.

18:iGoogle

Yep, have been using iGoogle for several years now.
