Thank You

Rula 2.0 was truly an amazing experience for me. Thank you to all the people who made this happen.
Every week I kept learning something new with Rula. I definitely enjoyed doing the activities. Some weeks were challenging and other weeks were easier, but all were fun to do.

YouTube Videos

I enjoy watching the best scenes of one of my favourite movies on YouTube. I like using YouTube mainly because it is user friendly and loads quickly in my browser, however I also noticed that many people keep on posting the same content making it redundant.

I chose this movie because I am big fan of Po. He's the most cute and adorable panda alive!!!

Also I think that if we were to have a service of this nature in the library it would be beneficial as we could post meetings, lectures, etc and other content for both students and staff.

Browser Tools

I could not install anything because of the way my computer at work was configured. As a result, this assignment had to be put on hold until the Ryerson Systems guy (Simon) gave me the proper authority. I have downloaded the google toolbar. It's a great way to keep all my personalized web favourites in a central place.

Social Networking

I've had a Facebook account for over a year now. I think it's a great way to stay in touch with people you know, but can be time consuming.

Goggle Docs

I have always used google maps and it's something I will continuing using as long as there are new places to visit.

Google Earth is a wonderful tool. You can zoom into different landscapes or terrain from above using real-time technology.


Play Week: Technology Petting Zoo

All the gadgets at the play time petting zoo were very interesting. I love the Wii, but I will most likely buy the digital camera frame.

Library Thing

The Library Thing was the easiest assignment to do. It's a cool way to keep track of your books.

Flickr photos

Kaieteur Falls is the tallest natural single drop waterfall in the world. It's approximately 780 feet and about five times higher than Niagara Falls.

Wikis are a great way to get people to share information between one another.

Greetings Fellow Villagers

Hello fellow Villagers,

Here is my first blog. I'm ready to use the power of my dragon scroll to help me blog, it will be quite an adventurous task for me as I will also save the valley from the rage of Tylon.
