Feeds are US; Feeds are Fun!!

Am I impressed or what!!

Gone are the days of being inundated by copius e-mails and spam....subscribe to who you want when you want and have all your contacts in one spot....

What more could a girl/librarian ask for.....

All roads lead to Rome.....

When in Rome do as the Romans do!!






I will and I'll love it! (Just don't do it to the frog!)


I'm so excited and I just can't hide it.......

I can remember having a most sincere conversation with my father while choosing my subjects for Year 11...."Mmm....computers" he said...."no I don't need to study computers...." I quickly replied; of course I was thinking more along the lines of programming and the likes but of course my Dad was onto it.....



In years 11 and 12 I typed the majority of my assessments up on my 'much treasured' electric typewriter (which I still have today and have used recently at work for labelling files in my filing cabinet.....not just for the shock factor..hee...hee!"; a look of terror crossed my CEO's face ... "We don't still own one of those do we?".... "No" I grinned "but I do!"



When I went on to Uni of course the progression started...first apple macs, then IBM, then further down the road to my career I became immersed in Windows 98 (Notepad, Write)....the Internet (surf's up!! ~ Internet explorer, Netscape, Anzwers, Web Wombat).....Y2K ("am I ever gonna see your face again?).......Windows 2000 (Word, Excel)....(Eudora).......Windows XP (Microsoft Outlook, Access, Publisher)......Vista.....



What's next??? Blogs, Wikis, Mp3, Ipods, (forgot mobile phones....the best!)....Flickr....Virtual Libraries.....tomorrow the world....



Mental note to self......always 'listen' to our elders, the decision is ultimately ours, but their opinions and life experience are very precious.....as is modern technology!!
Creating my own mobile phone froggy wallpaper..



Who would have thought it possible.....

What a way to spend a lazy Sunday morning....

Basking in the sun....watching the days of October pass us by

As I like changing my desktop at work at least monthly I think this option within flickr will suit me just fine and I also like the captions option....

Day 2

Well it's taken a wee while to get back to it.....but yes.....I have decided this is definitely fun!! As you can tell I have yet another little green interest and that is of the froggy kind.

I grew up on a farm and have always loved Spring....this is when the tadpoles come out to play....I used to love going down to the dam to fill one of Mum's preserving jars with tadpoles and take them to School for morning talk and then we would watch them grow....

I loved the Muppet Show..Kermie and Miss Piggy....

And then somehow all my friends realised that I was a froggy kind of girl and I now have quite a collection of little green froggy friends of the ornament kind....kinda nice really....not as fond of toads I must add....always thought they'd give you warts....that was the wives tale!

Well its ribbit from me.....or was that "read it" (in true ribbit fashion!)

Night Night.....
