There is a really smart woman working for doing things around the internet and Web 2.0. Check out Jane Nichol’s stuff. http://www.technologyreview.com/printer_friendly_article.aspx?id=18911 Neat stuff about Second Life and Google Earth.
More later. I have so much to learn but all cool – getting excited about it.

We are right now looking at Second Life. It is so cool. www. secondlife.com. Second life blog can be found here: http://blog.secondlife.com/. The blog about itYou can make your person look like whatever you want. Adjust the physical characteristics, etc. It is so cool – when typing on the keyboard – the person looks like they are typing.
Just went to this area where you could see what it is like to live as a person with schizophrenia. Really disturbing to see how challenging life would be. Amazing potential with this. This man is taking us around this virtual world.

Hi Bloggers – just found this link on Greg Carroll’s blog. It is all about proposition 2.5 and budgets in towns around Massachusetts, USA. Check it out: http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2007/06/23/stoneham_cuts_all_sports_at_high_school/?page=1
Hard to believe all school sports will be cut. Very sad.
Off to work.
Well – tomorrow is our last day to participate in Merrolee’s research project. Was good to meet with Anna last friday to answer some more questions. Realized how much I have enjoyed this research project – and that I hvae leanred heaps about Web 2.0.
The main theme seems to be I need to spend more time on it full stop. No excuses. More time using Web 2.0 tools. The thing I use everyday is I GOOGLE. Have it as my main page. Probably look most at my own blog and my delicious bookmarks. Do a bit with BLOGlines and CiteULike. Even showed my friends and colleauges Son of Citation. What a geek I am!!
I had a good weekend – relaxed at home and out on the Taieri with my friends and family. Our stubborn 4.5 month old labrador Bella finally (after 1 hour of calling) came across some shallow water. She is so so stubborn. Right now she is lying (lieing) down by my feet sleeping and snoring. A good girl.
OK – that’s all for now folks.
Blog on!!
