Week 9 - social tagging

Del.icio.us
came across this while at the introductory web course with Mike Smith.

BTW autosave works with opera 9.50.

just noticed that Save - control-S works in on PC version of Opera 9.50 codename Kestrel.

I mentioned in a previous post that Ctrl-S didn't work in Opera; this was on a Mac.
Mac OSX opera is 12MB compared with PC Opera, only a 5MB d'load.

Just d'loaded & installed Mac Opera, ctrl-S doesn't work

best to use Firefox when on a mac.

Week 8 - 2nd life

actually saw the some other footage about 2nd life

installed & uninstalled it on home machine, it really uses quite a bit of processing power, since it is a 3D world, also need a faster b'band connection than my measly 256/64kbps

firefox still 1.0.7 for the e-Lab eMacs.

Leopard, the next version of Mac OS X, is due sometime in October.

IT if you are reading this, could u pls update Firefox on the student Macs to 2.0.0.7.

Week 7 - Catch Up Week

Week 6 - don't forget to put something in the title - digital photos

used Lenovo ThinkCentre to publish these photos

using opera 9.50 alpha 9594 to edit this post

photo taken via i-mate jasjar, wireless network in e-Lab, staffmail to upload bottle.jpg.

'tis amazing how one can get creative with the gear that one has.

still trying to get used to this lenovo keyboard, somehow not quite as comfortable as a Honeywell. Just doesn't feel right.

Using an eMac. I do miss my mac keyboard, this is the difference between driving a Pulsar & a BMW, even though I haven't yet driven a BMW; I guess I should get around to the BMW dealership one of these days.

The eMacs in the e-Lab have been updated to 10.4.9.

Week 5 - getting bit behind

had other things to do this week, completing the MMR stocktake crosschecking MMR Filemaker Pro Asset Register database with Innopac MMR CH equipment database

went back to part time work this week
hence I'm catching up on this ECU Library Learning stuff at home on a Sunday evening.

Have to get round to Wikis.

although I have used wikis in the past to look up:
star trek stuff,
http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Portal:Main
also electric vehicle stuff

Week 4 - EBSCO's Australian PC magazine abstract typos

came across EBSCO about 5 years ago at the Woodvale public library.

back then, they seem to scan articles into their abtracts database but didn't check for typos.

I shall have to see if they have improved since.

looks like they have NOT.
"Socket 939 has eitra electrical connections for AMD's HynerTransport bus. allowing it to ramp up to ablating 1GHz."
==
"Socket 939 has extra electrical connections for AMD's HyperTransport bus. allowing it to ramp up to a blazing 1GHz."
"Gigabit Eltwrnet. Nuidia Firewali." = "Gigabit Ethernet. Nvidia Firewall."
"see an improvement in spaed." = "see an improvement in speed."

just goes to show that u shouldn't believe all you see on the net.

should I tell them about this
"Quizás, Quizás, Quizás" (also known as "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" in English)

Week 3 - RSS feeds

just re-discovered the Title field of this blog.

I found that the CNN footage takes too long to load

a bit of HTML knowledge is helpful in creating these blogs

it is really gr8 that blogger automatically saves drafts, just like in gmail or googlemail as it is known because gmail.com is already used in some countries.


had a quick browse of other's blogs but haven't posted on all.

almost forgot which login to use.

u might be wondering why I chose g4qbert
it is short for G4 Cube,

an Apple Mac that is present at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York



I'm using an iMac G5 to publish this blog.
also using Firefox 2.0.0.6

I tried using Opera, but it doesn't seem to support blogger keyboard shortcuts,
Ctrl-S especially, although this is practically redundant due to autosave.

it is interesting how water finds its own level, in terms of users finding the best way to do things and avoiding odd stuff.




somehow when I try to insert pictures into the blog, it gets put at the top of the blog, I have to edit the HTML code to position the image correctly in the text.

this blog is more a FMI - for my information instead of an FYI - for your information.

Week 2 - type something in the Title to name this post

thx 4 the posts Klickety & Elle
will try to find out who u r.

Week 1 - The Beginning of a New Era

I originally called this blog
"things that make you go hmmmm"

since this is a public blog, I guess that I have to be careful what I write.
or perhaps nothing really matters anyway, since only random people will probably stop by anyway.

Is there anybody out there? Pink Floyd.

Having a conversation is the aim of the game with these blogs.

I guess typos are inevitable,

check out the keyboard shortcuts at the bottom of the page, don't seem to work with opera on the Mac, will try firefox.

just putting out some keywords,
mainly my favourite URLs here,
free association,
thx 2 EyeSee's inspirational
