OK,OK,OK,OK

Jennie's been at me to get THINGS 4,5,6, and 7 onto this blog, even though I'm supposed to be training her on Moodlic!!! I guess this takes precedence. Thankfully I'm on a Mac and the screenshot requirement is a lot easier than for all you PCers out there.

Thing #4 Here's a shot of some of my FF addons.


My favourite addons are:
  • Diigo (a very impressive tool with a lot of scope for education)
  • GSpace or Gmail Space (which turns your 8GB of Gmail storage into a virtual computer - say goodbye flash-drives and viruses)
  • GUtil (pictured - need I say more?)
  • Download Helper (for all your video capture needs)
  • Foxmarks (because FF is so much more than a browser, I need all my changes to sync with other computers I use)
  • Cooliris (because it sounds cool and visual searches should be, well... visual!)
  • Answers (because I need to know now)
Thing #5 Contacts is a lot more intuitive than it used to be - but could still do with some tweaking. I guess we have 31 people doing 23 Things - that's 713 Things!!!


Thing #6 I have a Mac, so I use Adium for the Google Talk Window, otherwise, the Gmail Chat pop out serves well.


Thing #7 iGoogle - you may have noticed a recurring space theme - back in the day, I studied Astrophysics and keeping in touch with developments is one of my passions. This is my EdTech tab.
