Week 5: Welcome to the wonderful world of the Wikis. There are so many wonderful places to visit on this particular site, a veritable "feast" in fact. I enjoyed the breast cancer research site, the woolworks, and the Lunar Planetary Institute. I also found that the Booklovers Wiki would be ideal, especially for library work. As I devour so many books in my spare time, this would be an absolute boon - to add my own personal choices.

Fun and games with the RSS searches

After a merry chase, and an exploration through the wonderful selection of searches, I have now added 13 feeds to my account. These include sites for animals, care and protection, library information, the quote of the day (!), and literature, I feel that I have more than enough to keep me busy.

Many thanks must go to my ever patient colleague, Judy, without her help, I would still be "lost" in a maze.

I have chosen the theme of a country garden for my first web page of flickr. Thanks to the wonderful help and patience from my co-workers, I have managed to get to this point.

My Maiden Entry Blog

Thanks to the wonderful assistance from our ever patient I.T. lady, Tracey, I have at last managed to produce my very first blog. I have ventured on to the "information superhighway".
Never-too-old it is, as I must be one of the more senior ladies (horror!). I will endeavour to record my progress as I go, and the more practice that I have, hopefully the more confident I will become. It was a great feeling to be discussing my upcoming"blogging" experience with my son, maybe I will be able to teach him something along the way!
