Regarding Week 3; Things 5 & 6

45 minutes per Thing is not enough. I was mesmerized by the terror alert map linked from the Wikipedia article on mashups. But I get it: mashups are a technical cut and paste. I think the farthest I'll get with it myself is to come back and make a mosaic on Flickr. I hadn't thought of Flickr as having a use for us, but it has possibilities. What we need is TIME!!

Regarding Week 2; Things 3 and 4.

Hmmm. The slideshow has some very pedestrian aspects. I am totally on board with the concept that we are learning when we aren't even aware of it. The "learning contract ," to my mind, contradicts this very idea. The tracking log is contract enough for me.

Not really much to comment upon; looks to have possibilities.

Victory

As you can see, I successfully imported a jpeg for my header. I did it at home on my iMac, and it worked like a charm. Booooo, Windows. Coming soon, a post about the next Thing on the list, and perhaps an explanation of my blog title.

Getting started; setting up training blog

Everyone says this is so easy. Hah! In days to come I hope I will have mastered importing jpegs.
But that's it for now.
