  1. I have now seen yet another technology to explore, 'slide share', i've never seen this before. Maybe I will also be able to use this on my Blog on day to display information. Slide 18 has indeed spurred me onto thinking about what it is exactly that I want to achieve from the course. Thanks Paula, great thought provoking presentation!

  2. Thanks Alicia - yes I learned it from Peter who was on the course - it is a handy way of getting the powerpoint presentation up. I said last year I would work on my technology, so I hope to do more this year. I just bought 2 two terabyte hard drives to store things. So I just had to look this up:

    1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
    1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
    1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
    (Whats a Byte, http://www.whatsabyte.com/, accessed 20/9/11)

    I am getting back into the flow but it will take everyone working as a group to make it interesting and powerful and reach some peak moments - the Web 2.0 approach. In fact your looking at my blog made me want to look at yours...

  4. Wow just read up on 'What's a Byte', what a lot of great information. It's also got me thinking about starting to 'Backup' alot of my important files. Thanks Paula! I have another hard drive in England for backing up but not sure how much free space or 'bytes' I have left. Must get onto it sooner rather than later....
