Activity 11# Library Thing

I thoroughly enjoyed exploring this site as I love books. It was really good to put in my favourite authors and discover there were a few of their latest novels i was unaware of. I will be heading to my local library to see if i can borrow them soon!. i like the idea of being able to chat with like minded readers about favourite authors and sharing my thought with others. Will definitely explore this site further in the future!

Activity 10 # Image Generators

After quite an effort I finally managed to post this image! Creating the image was fun, but I found it difficult to actually post it to my blog. I think I'm technologically challenged at times!! I am going to play around with this a bit more when I have time and discover its secrets.

Activity 9# Virtual Worlds

As I have a Mac, I was not able to access Second Life etc. but I did have a look at World of Warcraft. The whole idea does worry me a bit in that I can see how it could become addictive for some people to the point that they may use it to escape reality. Once it became an obsession then the virtual world would become much more appealing than the humdrum life of everyday living. On the other hand, it could be stimulating and challenging in many ways. I think it's all about maintaining that balance. like most things in life. It isn't really my cup of tea, but I can see how it might appeal to some people.

Activity 8# iGoogle

I have just played around with iGoogle and thoroughly enjoyed myself!! What a great idea! I have set it up as my home page as it has all my favourite sites within easy reach. The waether, news, recipes, books etc. all there at the click of the mouse! it will save me lots of time in the future... I hope!
