Has it been that long - what’s that now . . . . 4 months . . . .

I did want to look at the ever-changing world of the web and web 2.0 and it’s uses in Irish Education and I’ve been invovled in and seen quite a lot now - BETT 08 and the likes.

Who knows, once I get off my arse . . . . .

Talk soon.

Not sure about my blog - I do like reading the info in others’ blogs and do regularly do so too. I probably need to get the finger out and do this more regularly.

One of the ways we learn is through repitition.

The brain works best this way. It’s like walking through a jungle - the more you take the same path the easier the journey gets over time. The hard bit is trying to forge a new direction - you have to cut your way through a lot of undergrowth first and then keep on taking the path until it’s easier (?) - more familiar is probably a better term.

Actually - I’m enjoying this now.

So, what to say and do next…

Not too sure if this’ll work or not as I’m publishing this through ScribeFire and I still can’t work out what’s going on.
Bit disappointing to only be a 25% Blogger - looks like I’m in the “must do better” bracket in school. Promise to try harder.

Be careful about adding the above link to your own blog as it also adds on a link to its own dating website - which can be then deleted from the code later.

It seems that every time I turn around there’s at least a good half-dozen new web-based applications available for use. So, Once Around the Bowl and you get to see something new each time.
However, a goldfish in its bowl, classically has a limited attention span too. So, everything is new to it once it does a lap. But a lot of these web 2.0 toys don’t always hold the attention span of their users.
I find that if I try one out, I don’t always go back for seconds - a pity, but it was probably a toy that was not for me or else I haveno direct need of it as yet.

This blog, I hope will try and reflect some of those “Once Around the Bowl” feelings I get whenever I follow a link to something that’s new to me.

Take care,
Fred Boss

But if you think you know (or want to effect the way I think) why not try and have a guess.

Answers (on a postcard?) as comments please and I’ll post my understanding of this title soon.
