Catching up here with Web 2.0 Games! Weird, I can't even pronounce the name of my new band, Nii Welbeck. Sounds more like a highschool student I once knew, Nicoline Shipticki.

With a Ghanaian band name I'm forced to use Google to find some dictionary site with pronunciation capabilities, like Merriam-Webster. Again, a learning experience using sound.

Well at least my first album, thanks to Eleanor Roosevelt, went gold, Do the thing you think you cannot do.

Crap, the image I wanted for my cover was protected so I couldn't use it. This one will do, borrowing from one of my new Flickr friends -- who found me the day after I loaded my first Cornwall, Ontario postcard scans. Only problem is that the image didn't get inserted at the bottom of this post.


You what? I have to admit I have used YouTube before -- and almost died laughing. One of my favourites is Bush Blair Endless Love. Where do people find the time to synch faces to lyrics? I don't know, there seems to be lots of weird eye movements going on in another spoof on the formerly leaders.

This just in: Academic Blog Portal is well worth checking out.


I found the listing of blog sites under the History tab to be very valuable. There will be some of those blogs that I will start to follow:

Quite a few months ago I created a Facebook account -- and then my family found me. Drat! I thought that I was safe.

So today I took another leap and created a Twitter account. I have little intention of telling my few followers how I feel. Someone recently used Grumpy as a good word to describe me.

Is this how to find me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/a7miller?

Will adding rula20 allow others to find this blog?

Okay, the petting zoo was fun -- and I found a Christmas present idea for the man who has everything, that would be my dad.

So this week I'm getting back to those Google applications I've dealt with from time to time. I love the idea about Google Docs and will play around with loading a piece and see if the team leader can find it. So often the screens have all those gadgets and I so easily miss the right one -- like the Share tab. Why, tell me why, does Google not like a7miller@ryerson.ca?

Google Maps has been very helpful for ages. I love grabbing the map and moving it around, just like adults do with paper maps. And is up always North?
