Week Three

I had some fun with both of the items we learned about this week. The most fun was doing the Flickr project, but it also took up the most time. Right now I am playing around with the pictures I have in Flickr, trying to get the pictures into my blog. As you can see from my last two posts, I was able to transfer a picture and a small slideshow. What I wanted to do was to put these on the side of the blog post, over where the profile and followers, etc. are. Is there a way to do that? I also tried to make a Flickr badge to add to my blog, but the URL would not be accepted by Blogger, saying that the URL was too big. I tried to make the badge smaller, but it was still too big. Any suggestions there?

The Google Reader is what I will probably use the most with my job. With the nature of my job, I will need to keep informed on all the new books for children, as well as the new technologies for the school. Using an RSS feed will help me keep up-to-date with the news and the latest improvements to technology. I have a good start on my list of feeds. I know there is still a ton of informative sites out there just waiting to be found.

  1. I also went with the Flickr account. I understand how it's taking you so much time - it's taking up a lot of my time too. I'm looking forward to going back through thousands of my old pictures and putting them on there in albums and sharing them with my friends and family.
