YouTube

This post relates to technology that interests me.
Two words: You Tube

I'm addicted, I'm hooked, it prevents me from getting anything done at home.
I've seen everything from Jack Johnson's 1912 Heavyweight title bout to Janis Joplin singing "Raise Your Hand" on The Ed Sullivan Show.

To be free from Windows Media Player and RealPlayer is liberating. You search for the subject you're interested in and presto, there it is. At this point, the descriptions are not authoritative and the comments & responses don't interest me in the least. What a great technology YouTube really is. Is there a You Tube Annonymous?

Mappr and Flickr Color Pickr

Flickr could be a useful image host for me. Maybe I'm missing the point, but Mappr and Color Pickr have no purpose for me. Why would I want to post pictures of my cross-country trip on a map? I suppose if I were 12 this would be a fun project.

If I were trying to color coordinate drapes, Color Pickr would be useful, but I'm not into color coordinating drapes......................maybe I'm just boring :)

Flickr

I signed up for a flickr account which was very easy because I already have a yahoo email account. As an experiment, I put a tag on a photo of one of my cats.

7 1/2 Habits

Easiest: Begin with the end in mind
Hardest: View problems as challenges

First Post

This is the first post to my new blog. It would have happened earlier, but I was out all last week.

Nothing much to say here today, but will add to it later.
