Week 4

Dear All,

Happy New Year. From the depths of last week, and from a colleague mentioning that someone is now following her Blog!, I remembered that I needed to write a post and get the program going again.

My holiday was nice. I spent it in North Queensland. My tech related goings-on were pretty much limited to catching my siblings in unplanned photos with my (admittedly poor) iPhone camera and putting them on FaceBook.

"Don't put that on FaceBook... so - and - so might see it..." (disgruntled sibling) to which I would suggest my privacy settings were sufficient to prevent it... although upon reflection - i'm not sure they are....

Anyway -- this week's tasks.

At this point - you may be ahead or behind - it doesn't particularly matter - but we're officially doing Week 4 (Tasks 7 and 8) - on RSS and Dashboards for content aggregation.

The point, as you will discover, is that sometimes you stumble across something useful or interesting and would like to be able to find it again later - or to be notified when the person contributes further. This is the essence of these tasks.

In a lot of ways - these are ideas which precede push notifications from programs or perhaps more casual Internet use. At any rate - I hope you enjoy yourself and get a few subscribes of your own somehow.

All the best,

~ Jake.
