Twitter again

I added a photo to my Twitter account but it was a bit dark - nice sunset; but to coaary on the beachtheme that I have in my iGoogle page, I changed my photo to a beautiful wave. Photo taken from Scarista beach on Harris. The light colous showed up better on Twitter. I have used Picasa for a while now & there is a nifty way to reduce pixels when you save photos. My original photo was too large for my Twitter page.

Thing 7

Twitter.....It has taken me a few days to get into this. Firstly I was slightly put off (I will just leave it until another day......put off) when I had to make a new email address up - luckily I was able to use my old cam one. Then I was faced with a blank page to write about........more delay. Then I chose a picture (not as easy as it sounds - and no, I have very few of me dancing; well, very few of me that I like) and tried to load it.......picture too big. Luckily Chris wil fix this this evening. I am getting there, but will need to work on Twitter a bit before I begin to feel comfortable with it. I will do some more reading this afternoon.

Thing 6

Google calendar is the first online calendar that I have used. It was faily easy to set up and put items on - it is also on my iGoogle page. Now I just have to remember to lok at that section of the webpage - somehow it is easier to look at my paper university diary.
The weekend went well - no time to look at 23 Things as I was teaching & then doing workshops & dancing all day Saturday. No pictures yet...I didn;t take any but other people took lots so I expect they will be up on Facebook sooon when people have recovered. It was a long day , 9am -2.30am...dancing; salsa, rueda, kizomba, bachata etc.
People are still signing up to my Doodle page - I used it for the librarians brown bag lunch at the end of the month. 10 people have replied so far.

Thing 5

So, I started Thing 5 this morning & once I had worked out (thanks Chris) how to actually work out where to put the email address of recipients then it went well. I shamelessly used the CCLF list to find the best time for next months Brown Bag Lunch. 2 people replied within a minute so it worked. 3 people now replied...maybe we will change our day to Thursday next month.....I will see what the poll says closer to the time.
To keep the dancing theme....we have done our lesson plan, had a practice run, and now are ready for teaching at the festival tomorrow.....I am looking forward to trying Kizomba again.

Thing 4

Thing 1. So, my first iGoogle page. I like having this as my home page but i'bve noticed that t odoes take a little more time to load than my old page.
Thing 2. RSS feeds. I found a few and subscribed but it was so easy that I will have to go back and look at this again.
Thing 3. Again, very easy to g oin and write my first blog...the hardest part was to get started with actually thinking what to write.
Thing 4.....here I came unstuck...I just couldn;t find where to add my next blog. I realised (thanks Colin) that I was actually looking at my blog post from the Cam23 page, & not the blogging page.....now to play around with my blog page...........
