Week 10

Downloaded an audiobook, Silent Spring on the workroom computer. It played OK.
No way I was able to do a podcast. There is just no time to do anything, especially since we are not allowed to use the computers on the desk anymore.

One thing about Web 2.0 as a whole is password management. I am not one to remember each username and password for each application. I'm from the paper scrap school of password management. Not Good. Carrying an address book is an option but you better not lose it.

There really is no way around this, other than using the same password over and over. One thing is that you can always sign up again and start over. Maybe doing that enough will encourage better management.

Week 7, 8 and 9

I have had zero time to make any posts. So it will be short.

Week 9 I looked at Last FM and Music Map. I liked Music Map better but both gave some funny results. As for digital rights for music I remember reading this archive.salon.com/tech/feature/2000/06/14/love/print.html in 2000. There are points in it that are still relevant.

Week 8 Flickr good. A great way to share images online. Alot of the Web 2.0 apllications are "neat" or "cool" this one is useful.

Week 7 Web 2.0 applications, what I found the most interesting were the comments section at the end of the lesson. There were posts that had a lists of links to Web 2.0 applications. Most of what I found I did not have a use for but it could be useful for someone else.

Week 6 popurls.com has potential but right now it looks like a place to kill time,

Hi, this is Chris again, I think somebody left their account open on this machine because my posts keep disappearing.

Week 3
Grokker OK, the grouping feature did not help me, I like things text based. I tend to like more raw data that I can scan and make decisions about.
My RSS feeds:
Eat the Press (huffingtonpost.com)
Media Matters for America
The Onion
Techno Teens (OCLS)

Week 4
The Web 2.0 video was really fast, multiple viewings are necessary, but it is well done. The web 2.0 applications are not a problem, it's the workroom computers that won't run the plugins or install Quicktime.

My favorite Web 2.0 thing is the blogging, I have gotten alot of comments on my "Beanie Babies" and "Precious Moments" Blog.

Pieta

In the shimmering distance my eyes register
a copse.... a wabe.... a plinth....
And Worrell

I move toward the light-
faster.....

I awaken with a start
The room is small and empty
In my hands
Shattered Pieces

A Shaft of Light

I saw him on the street today
I was walking alone, he was in his Mercedes.

He saw me and nodded ever so slightly.
Sometimes the most subtle things are the most powerful.

I was whole again

This is Not a Drill

"I saw Worrell once I think,
for a moment the firmament came unstuck,
then it was dark...
I was not ready. "

You have been touched.
It begins.

Colors are brighter, Sounds are richer, You can feel things with your eyes.

A New Awakening.

Burnt Offerings

Last Sunday I had to go to the Fair

Henry "The Fonze" Winkler was there. I wanted him to autograph a picture with the text "To Mr. Worrell, Hang in there Baby..... Aaaayyyyyyyyyy" but it was $25.

Beginning in Midstream

An immersion into that which is Worrell.

A shock to the system, a concussive plunge to the senses, the ultimate transformation...no, transubstantiation into the essence of WORRELL.
