Smiley Face

Yay, I got my smiley face. Thanks to the whole etg group for all your help. It was fun doing the exercises once I got into it. I had to laugh this week when it came out that the Ontario government was banned from Facebook when we were all taught it at work. It is interesting and informative to know what the students of today are using the internet for. I have found a few friends from Facebook and a long lost cousin too. I also liked the online applications. I am sure once I start using these things more I will get used to them. Thanks again for all your help and especially to our group leader, Alex.

Browser Tools

I tried to download Firefox at home on the weekend and between kids and cleaning I just wasn't having much luck. Oh also getting lost in the web for a few hours on Facebook didn't help. So on Monday morning I installed it at work. I think like anything it is something that I will get used to, the more I use it. My add-on was the weather one and Stumbleupon. Stumbleupon is something that could be fun because it does just that. I like the bizarre and the humour pages. I then installed the MORRIS bookmarklets and picked Journal Title and Title just because I am of Periodicals. I right away looked up a title from a stumbleupon humour section and MORRIS found it for me. That was nice and we have the book! Journal title I probably won't use so I am going to put in Author too.
