Second Day of Class

Howdy!

Today, we started off the day by talking about OUR ONLINE LIFE vs. OUR REAL LIFE. 

We talked about the thin line that separate the two, and then we talked about privacy. 

At about 10:50-ish we started to mess around with Twitter again. We learned how to change our back grounds, send replies, follow people, and much more. 

At 10:25 we had our mandatory break.

When we came back, we learned about GOOGLE READER! its a very cool thing, where you can subscribe to, and then every time that web page changes, you get an update! We all used out Gmail accounts to follow each others blogs this week! Then we had to read everyones posts! 

Then it was time for lunch! See you at 1:00 on the dot!

At 1:00 we all came back from lunch, and Matthew showed us some of his favorite bog posts that we had made! We looked at his website, and heard a little bit about DELICIOUS. we aren't necessarily going to learn about it this week. 

Then, we talked about wikis, what they are, and how to use them. We also learned that wikis are more reliable then printed books! YOu should check out this website!

It's very cool!

At 1:24 we watched a Youtube video called RSS in plain english. 

At 1:36 we were sent out into the center to link at least five more websites to our google readers be RSS. 

2:00, and the day is almost over! It went by so quickly! We take at Matthew's blog, and learned how to comment on peoples blogs. We all commented on his blog, and told him what our favorite thing that we RSSed. 

By 2:45, we were back to finding things to RSS and twittering about them!

Our favorite Youtube video of today? Well for a while we got a little off topic... and this is what resulted!
