CPL 2.0 - Twitter Assignment

After experimenting with Twitter I'm confident it is not something I would use. I don't have a lot of interest in stranger's inane comments about everything under the sun just to see their ideas in print. The comments posted on the library site I checked out seem to be mostly reminders (i.e. remember the library is closed on the Victoria Day holiday; remember this particular event on that particular day; hopefully I have other methods of remembering things that are important to me.

CPL 2.0 - LibraryThing Assignment

I found the LibraryThing site very user-friendly and easy to use.

CPL 2.0 - Online Productivity Tools Assignment

After studying the Google Calendar option I don't think it is something I would be interested in using. I prefer the traditional (and practical) option of a paper calendar or daytimer, which can travel with me at all times. I personally don't choose to "share" my appointments with others and if I need to co-ordinate dates or events with someone else the phone or e-mail works just fine.

CPL 2.0 - Flickr & YouTube assignment

Flickr and YouTube are both very user friendly. The problem is the amount of time you could potentially spend on these sites since they can be very addictive. Flickr was very handy for me recently in order to share photos with friends from Victoria who travelled on a cruise with us.

CPL 2.0 - RSS assignment

Yes, I was able to successfully set up my RSS feed. It was easy and convenient to use.
