How Strange

I did the Google docs assignment and had quite an interesting time with it.....mainly because I was invited to join someone else's document and I just happened to be in it while they were and guess what??? all of a sudden someone is typing onto my screen in real time and I am reading it and watching them make spelling errors and backing up and rewriting! It seemed a little crazy especially since we could both add stuff in after each other....it was alittle like being in a chat session....but way more unorganized!

Eureka I think I got it!. Choose the Share option in utube and then the Blogger option and it will pop it right into your blog. I was already signed in so I didn't have to verify, but I didn't get any option to add text at that point. I needed to go back in and edit the post but it worked!

Let's see if this will work...

I am going to try to post a link to a utube video on my blog....it shouldn't be so hard right?
I have copied the embedded htlm code that utube provides for the video and I am going to link it up.

Okay that does NOT work....let's see what else can I try?

All I can say...

Well all I can say about setting up the RSS feeds and Google reader is YAY for dual monitors!! It just makes it all a little less confusing when you can flip from screen to screen easily! You can also add the Google reader as a gadget on your iGoogle page....then all of the recent posts of folks you are following will come to one place!

I am following you....

I am now following you...I know that sounds alittle creepy but really I am just following your blog posts. Today I am doing a little experiment about what becoming a blog follower is all about. I am not sure, but I think that when you become a follower of someone's blog, you get updates on your dashboard about when this person has posted something new...so to my follower, did you get a notification of my new post??

And we're off..

We have begun our '23 things' experience. So far so good! I am still trying to find some practical workrelated applications for iGoogle but so far I have not been convinced that I would want it as my homepage. Hopefully as we progress, I will see the connections!
And as for blogging...well I have some experience with a family blog that works great for keeping in touch and for posting all those things 'not so suitable' for facebook!
