Things to do
I am having trouble checking up on Ilearn. I guess we are not using it as much.
I would like to view others blogs but am having trouble logging on. I think I have password and site name correct. I may have to check again with someone.
I really appreciated everyone's presentations the other week. If I could only put my stuff online- Dave's wiki had just about everything. Today I will be investivating forums and php. Tomorrow I will try to fully mockup what I plan.
I'll have to dredge up some of my minimal Flash knowledge. I hope to at least have a mock up of what I am creating.
I won't feel so bad about not having a product yet as that is what I'm doing for the pool is creating this website so I will see it realized eventually. What has been great is learning about all the possibilities with web 2.0. This is the interactive communication that the company needs. I have the surveys to prove it. Its the proprietory issue that concerns me. Will I have a lot to maintain? I have decided Moodle is not appropriate for that reason.
My other big hold up was getting the video tutorials compressed for an intranet site. Hopefully, I will be able to put it together now. I am hoping the new Imovie 08 with its codecs for compression for the web will solve my problem.
I will try to redo my Second Life Power Point into a Quicktime so I can post it on my blog. Unless anyone has a faster idea.
At the moment I think I will have to redo it in Keynote as I know it has an export to quicktime option. Maybe I should investigate ppt. more. I also heard that Google docs presentation loads nicely into Blogger. So I will have to investigate that as well. So much technology and so little time.

Second Life
I could have posted a lot on this one. I think Second Life is interesting in a creative geeky kind of way.
I had so many problems with orientation. It didn't help that I have practically no gaming experience or Multiuser online
gibberish experience. I can see that their is a great creative force involved in this and that is about the only thing that kept me from quitting. Oh that and a grade.
I will have to abandon my avatar and create a new account to learn some of the things I missed. I still have the official users guide I bought from B&N at a dear price. I still recomend it for oldie/newbies like me.
