Betty Blogger Course 2011

1.  Yes I would rate this course at an 8 because I could not always follow the directons!!!. 
 2. Yes the course met my expectation as I really had no idea what I was getting into!
3.  Posting my Blog. sometimes I found that so hard!
4.  That is hard as is if I had not gone to some of the drop in session I do not know if I could have compled the course.
5.  Yes I would recommend the course to a friend as I really think it was a great learning session and taught me that I do not know anything about the computer.! One is always learning and that is the challenge to continue
Thank You Libary Lady

Could not email it to you because I was in the library and both Firefox and Internet Explorer retruned an internal error message. Perhaps, it is a permission error!

Thought that this weeks assignment was much easier to follow this week and perhaps  I will use it after the course.

Betty Blogger - Twitter

1. I think that Twitter is great, however, it has taken me so long to get onto the site that I felt very frustrated. I am willing to try again and think I will enjoy the tweets that our politicians make will be very interesting.

2. I do have concerns however, as I feel that once you have sent a tweet that I may send something that I may later regret.
I feel that many tweets are so ridiculous especially about celebrities and just a waste of peoples time.
The turmoil in the Arab contries and the uprisings would never have become public if it had not been for the social networking by the people who rose against their leaders.That is excellent as journalists were unable to gain entry into the countires.

3. Yes I will continue to use twitter after these weeks of Betty Blogger but it will take time for me to become more at ease with using this method.
