This is a test post from flickr, a fancy photo sharing thing.

using flickr





Initially I had trouble registering with Flickr because I tried to retrieve my old Yahoo user details. I eventually made a new account and things went fine from there. It took a little bit of messing around to find the pages where I could do what we had been instructed to do, but it didn't take long to get going. Uploading the photos was dead easy. BTW using _ instead of - doesn't separate tags comprised of more than 1 word, and MPI104-2007 becomes MPI1042007 and the system doesn't read it!!
Here's a link to my Flickr account

delicious account

Ok, so the whole thing is really confusing to me at this time. I've never really even been interested in reading other peoples blogs - I'm usually on the net looking for factual/practical information, rather than just randomly surfing (this isn't to say that I don't get sidetracked once I get started).

So far it seems different students have done different things in terms of where they're posting and what they're responding to, so I've no real benchmark at this stage to help me confirm that what I'm doing is right.

So... I'm going to try to put a link to my delicious account from here, and have something reasonably interesting for you to look at once you get there.

try again

Ok, this time with the hyperlink working properly... I hope

Inspiration!

found this when looking through the blog's that Joh has listed for inspiration on the course site. Just thought I'd share. Some are pretty good!

everything is possible with the Simpsons

In response to the post on the Multimedia Metablog; the Simpsons have a multigenerational feel - kids enjoy the banality while older viewers enjoy the humour that often has adult-themed undertones; sexual, political, reference to other media eg popular film. I watch it with the kids (except for the endless repeats) and can't say I have a favourite episode, but Lisa is definitely my favourite character.
