Learning new gadgets

Well this certainly has been a very interesting learning experience for as I am now starting to be able to learn things without always asking for help. And believe me when it came to wanting to load a slideshow on my blog I was very tempted to straight up to someone who knew what they were talking about and ask them what to do. But I have discovered that in doing that you are never able to remember what you have just been taught when you don't always figures things out for yourself. Now I know what to make a slideshow by using Flickr and I don't think that I will ever forget. It wasn't because it was such a long process it was because it was something new. And learning something new always terrifies me. I have now come to embrace it though and I now look forward to learning new things instead of passing it over to someone else. 

I now have another page that I have subscribed to and I am glad that all of this is for free otherwise I would have no money left by the end of this course. candice perini this is the link to my flickr site. There aren't that many photos on it at the moment mainly just the ones on my slideshow but eventually I will add more now that I know what to do.

  1. Excellent slideshow Candy! I understand what you mean about increasing in confidence to try something new as we progress into this course. I do have to ask, though, is the slide show you set up connected to flickr or did you do it on your blog? (yes, I still ask lots of questions, but I discover things on my own too...)

    Curious minds think alike :-)

  3. By the way, the reactions bar that you've added to your posts is amazing! I was wondering, is that in 'add a gadget' under the 'poll' option, or was it something different? Maybe tell me in class.
