my final note

This is it. I guess when all is said and done, I've learned that I am still NOT comfortable with the internet. It still frustrates me, and leaves me with the desire to throw the whole thing out the window. I did learn that there are things out there that I currently have no interest in, but that if time permits, I may go and search to see if I change my mind. (downloading some of the different audios.)
Would I take this course again if offered? only if I knew that there was a special groups of people available to help... maybe those of us who have difficulties on a regular basis, could meet at an assigned time, work quietly and then when there was a problem, we could all meet with it together. I couldn't have been the only person who had such a hard time with these assignments.. I hated the feeling that I was interupting someone who was working to get help. Then after being told that we weren't suppose to get help from IT, that it must be an IT problem, check with them...
So that's all I have to say...

gaming

This is yet another assignment that i didn't do on work time. I love playing games on POGO. don't get me started. I won't stop... both yahoo and pogo have a lot of similar games. I have discovered that the chat on Pogo is more entertaining. whether it is between kids or adults, if it gets disgusting I can go to another room, but for the most part its fun. Yahoo, is just kinda there. Also with Pogo the pay plan is different... i get bored easy with one game... downloading yahoo, i get bored after a month of play... playing games, puzzles whatever keeps your mind active, young ect. whether you are young or old... add computer skills, what better way to learn to use the computer, mouse and other tools...

geotagging--mapping

I've had fun with smoe of the different mapping on the computer. I frequently use the computer to get driving instructions... I've also zoomed in on classmates--classmates.com... I didn't actually take the time to do this one at work.. but I knew this one was available, in different formats, and many different uses. there is a site that lets you look at your neighborhood and price the houses -- this seemed more important in a better economy.--

avatars---

Well, i went in and created an avatar on doppelme and used the key to post it on blogger. as you can see, it is not there. big surprise... but ive spent as much time on this one as i dare... I have avatars on pogo and am happy with that. if someone wants me to have an avatar other than that, well they can create it to my specifications, and make it work...
