Week 8 - Online applications and tools Zoho hoho

Whoa Pond dwellers! Zoho writer is a wee gem - an online word document processing opportunity. Had great fun discovering all the possibilities, once I had set up my Zoho account. What an excellent publishing option that is hosted away from your private PC. Cool templates too! CVs would be really helpful for wee Pukekos who use the Library's Learn.net for their job hunting. Seems to have more options than microsoft!!! Can't wait to show the feathered neighbours what I've found!!!

Week 7 - Bebo, My Space, Facebook

At long last I have poked my head out of the nest and taken another look at these new folks on the other side of the pond. The buzz had been that Bebo was the place to be - OK if you're a very naive Pukeko chick still grappling with life's twists and turns. Can't say that my foray into Bebo was at all appealing, though. Seems as though it is for newly hatched chicks who have no social graces and little respect for old feathers like mine. My Space and Facebook were similar although activity seemed to be more promising on both those sites. Good to know that I can retain my dignity and be as private as I like, only letting a few feathered friends contact me on Facebook when they choose to do so.
Took a moment or two to look at Hennepin County Library's website. Nothing on board that really caught the eye of this Pukeko, but those folks sure know how to get things moving and shaking. They've sure covered all their bases, Photos, videos, information AND interaction. Great communication option for all their customers and friends and I bet there are real shy Pukekos like me who are too afraid to ask questions but can squizz at other blogmeisters' questions and answers to find out stuff. Looks easy too, huh?
