RSS certainly has been interesting! I am only part of the way there, but starting to get it. I can see lots of possibilities already- keeping up with tech news, the latest info on a topical level. Also using as an information service to our patrons. Lots ot think about!


A week in the garden


Well I meant to get onto my blog again long before this, where did the week go? I finally got around to finding some photos of the garden taken in late spring last year, I'm looking forward to the irises & roses coming out again. Still, the camellias have started to bloom this week, our season is way behind Melbourne's because of our cold climate. The daffs are still out & the bluebells are on the way. And just to show us that spring really has sprung, my neighbour's horse which is agisted in our paddock at the moment had a beautiful little colt this morning. I'll post a photo of him next week, all legs & so cute.

#5 Discover flickr & #6 More flickr fun


I have had another look at flickr, I use it at home to store pix so that family can see them & it works really well, I have put 200 pix from our recent trip to Europe on there & it was very easy although the uploading took a while. But it's so much better than emailing image files to people.

But the mashups were new to me, I couldn't get anywhere with colrpicker but I did get this nice image from montagr to continue the spring theme- OK so it is from Japan but I don't have blossom like that in my bush garden. No point planting fruit trees becuase the rosellas eat all the fruit!
Next I'll have a look at the trading cards

Week 2 create a blog


Hello all my fellow bloggers! It's good to be starting something new in the spring season, I am not a winter person & don't feel like doing anything when it's cold. But the daffodils are up, the wattle is out, the grass is green & the sun is shining sometimes at least so here goes....I'll have to put some photos of the garden up on flickr to create the spring mood.
