#23 Reached my destination

If someone had told me I would actually finish this online learning program, I would have been doubtful. To have reached the end is both an achievement & a relief. Technology is not second nature to me - it never has been, so this 2.0 program has proven frustrating at times, lots of fun on other occasions.
It has been worthwhile, in that, I now have some understanding of the extent of how people communicate online & that there is an element of fun in sharing information this way. Will I continue blogging? I doubt it. I would rather share experiences in person, via a phone call or by writing an old fashioned letter & sending it by snail mail. The idea of placing my personal information & inner most thoughts on a blog leaves me cold - I value my privacy too much & probably nobody would find it very interesting anyway!
Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this program - it's been an interesting ride.

#21 Podcasts, Smodcasts

Adding a podcast to my Bloglines account proved to be a challenge but with the help of my colleagues I have added the St. Kilda football club site. This site has podcasts & a link to RSS feeds.
The discovery process for RSS feeds was the most arduous task of the entire Web 2.0 Learning program, so the heading "Podcasts, Smodcasts" was an apt description!
