Podcast Thing #21

I read through the podcast information on thing #21. I actually made it through the information while on the information desk. Yahoo has a very comprehensive tutorial and give you quite a bit of information. I plan to explore all the different links for podcasts. I'm not sure I'm ready to produce and publish my own podcast yet. I was surprised by all the different podcast available.

Thing #19 Web 2.0 Awards

There's quite a few awards in the Web2.0 link. I chose to follow the health awards link. There were four links under the health link. I took my time going into all of them. The PeerTrainer link gave information on exercise and health(weightloss).There were links for online support groups, daily logs and meal logs. From those links you cold go into other related websites. MedStory allows you to type in a query and gives you the results by categories. Under each category it allows you to view all information related to it and rates? it by relevance. It also gives you at the bottom of the page web results, articles and website links. Healia I found to be simular to Medline or the NIH websites. The honorable mention revolutionhealth.com was set up like a community webpage newsletter with links to conditions, health news, insurance, doctors and hospitals etc. Covered a wide range of topics. It was not like Medstory which gave you a link to Medical trial studies.

Thing #18

Well I tried a flyer in Zoho. It turned out alright but some of the options available in Microsoft Office are not available in Zoho. When I published it to my Blog it took over the page. I guest it was just too big for it. I should have tried something smaller. Some of my words were cut off or shifted to the next line. It great for memo reports etc. It does allow you to insert pictures but not borders. I tried editing what I typed. When I tried changing the font size by highlighting it and clicking on the font size it wouldn't let me change it that way. I had to delete and retype. I printed out a copy of my flyer and what seemed so large in Zoho documents was actually very small on paper.

Whoops!!!!

Looks like I did thing 20 before I did things #18-19. Not sure how I missed them so I'll have to go back and do those two.

Okay I'm editing this and I realize I had skipped #18 until I could have more time to do it. Well it is frustrating. I already had a Gmail account I went to them first. There were no templates or suggestions so I figured it was for someone who already knew what they were doing. Then I went to Zoho and it gave me templates and examples of different documents you could make. Well I got an account and everytime I opened up one of the templates I got a Microsoft error message and it would ask me If I wanted to report the problem or not. Needless to say it cut me off no matter what I chose and I had to start over. It did that 5 times so I'll create my own.

Spray Paint Art Thing #20

I couldn't resist. I was cruising Google's videos (youtube etc) and found this guy that makes spray paint art. Take a look. I was fascinated that he didn't have a definite plan as he made them. Enjoy! You know I had already done this while exploring how to add a page element.(see the Star Trek video clips) Oh well practice makes perfect.

Sandbox Wiki

Just left the Sandbox. It was interesting. I learned that means to underline something and means to stop underlining. Trying to figure out how to change the text color in the Wiki. Under favorite books I entered Dark Celebrations. If you haven't read Dark Celebration and are not into paranormal type romances skip the book but copy the recipes at the back of the book. They're Great!!!!! Just viewed my blog and saw that the little symbols didn't come through. So look at your keyboard and over the comma and the period on your keyboard there are is a little sideways v. You put those on either side of a u and that means to underline in HTML. Those on either side of a /u means to stop underlining.
