What a Flickr

Another learning experience, well I am learning something but not the whole truth. First of all I was little confused how am I going to keep track of all the accounts and the passwords I am creating for this purpose, but one kind spirit showed me the reference sheet which is for the purpose to keep track of all my newly created accounts and their passwords. Thank you kind spirit if you are reading my blogs. Here I started exploring the flickr. During going through this journey, I realize that I need to post a photo and share it with other people, but sorry I don't like sharing my photos with strangers, only my close friends and family has the the rights to see it.
To explore it further I created a new account with yahoo for flickr but presently I don't have any photo to upload, not supposed to have personal stuff on the office computer. Through the flickr I somehow the other came across "Piknik" and through piknik I opened my face book account and sent invitation to few of my face book friends to join flickr/piknik. I tried to play around with one of my photo on the face book like editing it or try to do some changes but I dont know if I was successfull. Since it is not my field to upload the picture on library flickr but may be if I ever get a chance to attend a library related senior events I would definitely try it on flckr with the permission. Its a cool stuff but need to do some experiments to understand it completly.

wow I did it

Yes I did subscribe to Daily Herald and for that I thank you so much Linda. You showed me how to do that and now I am going to find some Urdu newspaper and subscribe that too. I am excited now probably I will learn some more.
Thank you Linda once again, I am sure with your help I will probably go to the end of Learning 2.0 one day. InshaAllah

Disheartened with RSS FEEDS

I am really very confused with this RSS FEEDS. As far as I understood it is kind of soft ware which is also called feed reader, it is a way to subscribe to one website and keep your self updated by getting all your favorite new or blogs which will come just by one click one place. To understand it more, I signed into g mail and went into Google reader. I read some news shared by other people. But i am not clear at all since I wanted to subscribe to Daily Herald, I could not and there is no one available to explain, since every one is very busy and I wonder if I will be ever able to complete my "Learning 2.0" ever. sorry!!!

not excited about my space

I wrote my blog two times before and didn't know how to post it, one time I tried to post it but after when I wanted to view it, it was not there, so I started writing again and asked Michele to help me and show me, she copied to paste it at a proper place and when she wanted to paste it was no more there. Now this is my third time to give it a try and if I remember all my thoughts and what I wanted to post. Actually I started session three last week but I was very busy and could not go through the whole session just read social networking and later tried to sign up my space but for some reason it didn't let me but coming up with some error. But i got my self familiar with the my space and today I was able to open an account with my space, i am not very excited about my space but I already have an account with Face book, I don't know everything about it accept how to find a friend or send a message i recently learned to upload a picture from my mobile phone, and Friday at the bookmobile Roundup at Glenwood-lynwood i took couple of pictures and upload it on the face book though its not very clear but at least I tried and did it. Please I need some feed back to be on the right track, am I doing ok if not I would appreciate your help. Michele is great help but I don't want to bother her with little things, she is already busy with lots of other duties. thank you again. Oh one more thing pretty soon you will see me in Igby's costume, GOD help me hope I wont passout.

I am trying to learn about blogs and for that reason I had a tour of blogs and read other people's blogs. Trying hard to learn all about learning 2.0. Please let me know by posting a comment if I am doing right.
