Sting - When We Dance

Podcasts, video & downloadable audio


Week 9 : Podcasts, Video & Downloadable Audio

Ahhhh, music, the best thing from 23 things. It makes my heart sing (or should that be sting?).

Sting : When we dance. See a separate post to see and listen to the video. I selected this video to insert into my blog because I like Sting's voice and pretty much all of his songs. This song in particular is a favourite, and a little haunting.

I wonder about the usefulness of any of the sites we have experienced during the 23 things project and also wonder about copyright, originality, privacy etc. we are peering into other peoples diaries and borrowing their stuff or in some cases editing what they have entered. I know I can do all this stuff but I don't like it, it goes against the grain. Perhaps I am just not a sharing/caring person!!! Over and out from the cynical one.

Weel 8 part 3 ... Tools

We were asked to "explore any site from the Web 2.0 awards list, play with it and write a blog post about your findings."
Well, I explored several sites from the awards list, I played (?) with them and am now writing a blog about it ... Too much info (or miss-info). Too many clicks. Too much wasted time waiting for pages to load, just to find you need to click again and again to get anywhere. I am sorry it doesn't do anything for me ... Y a w w w n.
