WEEK TWO: Facebook (The Battle)

I came to work early this morning (after a good night's sleep) ready to see if Facebook and I could come to a new understanding and have a harmonious relationship. Alas, this will take more work than I thought because once again, Facebook is playing hard to get. This is what frustrates me about all this new technology - when you follow the instructions it still doesn't work. I have gotten the following messages from Facebook this morning - there was an error processing, the port won't open, you have entered an incomplete or incorrect link (even after I cut and pasted the thing!). Why is this so hard? Technology is supposed to benefit me - not cause headaches. I feel the need for chocolate therapy and then will gear up for another try.

WEEK TWO: Still Blogging!

I know it's time to move on to Facebook but my previous close encounter with it was so bad that I'm procrastinating. Instead, I'm trying elements in blogging that I have not done before. Check out my fish at the bottom of the page. Want to feed them? Just left click your mouse in the fish tank. Fish are very soothing and these remind me of the koi in Hawaii who actually beg! You know, I bet it's sunny in Hawaii right now, not cold and grey. Road trip anyone?

WEEK ONE: Blogging

Well, the journey begins.....

I hope that this journey will be my "path to technological enlightenment" - right now, it looks like a formidable mountain to climb. I'm not really a Luddite but just a technology klutz! I know I need to be familiar with the tools that are out there so I'm in for the long haul here. Fortunately we are starting with blogging which is something I've done before. At least there will be one triumph along the way!
