RSS FEEDS

THIS PAGE WAS MEANT TO BE BRIGHT GREEN (the screen shot of my web page, that is)

Learning Curve!!!

I just discovered where the RSS feeds I have subscribed to are appearing...under the 'Posting' tab.

Will now have to work out how to scroll back and read evreything I've missed out on!!!

Might spend a bit of tomorrow clicking on classmates blogs before trying to correct my trashy web page (won't use colour this time...I think that's what undid me).

I'm sure my 'nesting' technique was logically and technically correct.

Stay tuned...hopefully, a screen shot of my pathetic first attempt will appear somewhere in this message...

Module 2: Chat Task

Tonight I joined a chat group on ICQ that Brett instigated: THANK YOU BRETT :-)

At first I wasn't sure how to join in (5 mins late), but Kobi sent me an invitation and I worked out (after the 2nd invite...she sent 3 in fact) that all I needed to do was click it.

It was a bit hectic initially, with about 5 conversations going at once (from 'Hi' to 'what job do you have' to 'what are you studying' and few other introduction/get-to-know you-type things).

We finally got around to answering whether people like MSN or ICQ or other chat types like Face Book. To be honest, I have always veered away from any sort of chat contacting except via sms.......Now I'm *hooked*!

What I liked most, was that it is in real time.

Sure, it took 20 minutes or so to do introductions with over 10 people on board, but it was no different to a similar sized group meeting for a few drinks at the local - except for the drinks bit and no loud music (for me anyway).

I also started a 'NET11 SP4' Group in ICQ:

and so far we have about 6 members and counting.

A picture of the page is somewhere in this message.

So, to wrap up my first chat experience:

I LOVED IT because it was in real time and extremely interesting.

Thanks again to Brett for organising it...looking forward to the chats on Sundays at 7pm.
