#42 Google groups/Usenet

I have skipped Animoto and will go back to this exercise from my home computer. There certainly are some interesting groups on Google Groups. Keying in Art Deco, I discovered some very colourful postings (not all polite responses to other users).

#35 Mini or micro blogging

Twitter was quite interesting - I checked out jobloggs twitter. It took me several attempts before finding a unique username - so there must be a growing number of users subscribing to twitter. It is a wonderful tool for keeping in contact with colleagues and friends.

#32 Online file storage Box.net

I uploaded photos to box.net and had a lovely time rotating the images, changing colours and straightening the photos. How often I would use this site for work purposes is questionable, but it certainly was enjoyable using this site.

#31 Plaxo
