I've just had a look around at the other blogs that are on show....... wow. It seems everyone is having a fun, if confusing at times, time. It's interesting to see the different pictures that people have put on their blogs, from pictures of cats, bikes or panoramic mind blowing scenery.
It seems we're all starting to experiment more now with our blogs too.

RSS feeds
Well this was interesting.
I'm up to week 4 of learning 2.0 . This weeks activity was about RSS feeds. It was explained as a way for you to receive info from your favourite blogs without all the searching, there was a nice YouTube video.
Then we were to go and sign up for Bloglines and subscribe to various RSS feeds. Once you sign on you get a confirmation email and once you confirm Bloglines gives you a list of other sites to which you can subscribe to. I ended up subscribing to 12, which included CNN, Dilbert, Wire, Rotten tomatoes and the shifted librarian, through this method.
I then subscribed to the Powerhouse museum - photo of the day site through the search option of Bloglines, the search isn't a keyword search so if you miss spell or have the phrase wrong you will not get any hits.
I joined the Gmail reader several months ago and the difference between the two are interesting. At this point i'm not sure as to which i prefer.

Law Library (Winter) by dgermony
Just walking around flickr and spotted this photo by dgermony . I thought the different textures of the photo were pretty. The warm glow of the law library with the harsh white glare from the outside light and the reaching branches of the trees form a pleasing aspect. It give me a feeling of warmth and interest, wanting to know what is on the other side of the window while still wanting to walk in the snow and enjoy the trees.
