Extreme Ironing

Sorry--I've been playing ...I may have jumped ahead of myself.

I have become very fond of extreme ironing. But I just want to do it by the Loire or Lake Bled or Lake Como or while eating chocolates and flemish stew and pomme frites and Belgian beer in Brugges -- now thats extreme

Module 2

It just took me forever to hyperlink my blog url to the wiki...
Wow ...I look back at that sentence and wonder when I started speaking in a foreign language!!

This is what troubles me about my web 2 journeys, now and in the past: time just gets sucked away. Simple things take a long time until you work them out and you get lost in the process. Time seems to freeze while you wrestle with the problem at hand ...and then moves into fast forward with a vengeance when you look up to realise that the family hasn't been fed or the husband went to bed hours ago. The world of web 2 is in its own twilight zone!

Grumbles over -- I'll get onto educational thoughts next time. Night!

My CEO Web 2.0 Blog +Module 1

Well, Im up and running...I think.

As I discovered in a previous similar course, the most tedious thing is all of the passwords etc. You never seem to be able to use quite the ones you want and then you forget them anyway and have to create new ones the next time you are spurred on to try something new. It does make you wonder just how many 'dead' usernames and passwords there are out there. When I'm told I cant have my name and password in the format I want its frustrating...because I'm sure that its the one I cant access because I've forgotten some detail! Sigh.

I am really pleased to have a go at this course because I think I know just enough now to really use it in a meaningful way. I have now blogged and so have some of my students -- so I want to take my Web 2 learnings to a more sophisticated level (or at least beyond "what does this button do"; or "I did it but I don't know how").

Wish me luck!
