Bloglines...news feed...

I don't know what to think about the bloglines. I don't like subscribing to anything, although there are some good news feeds, I'm not sure that I will like being apart of the bloglines. I added some feeds about music, fashion, sports, technology, and some others. I looked at most of them and they're great if I had time to read them all. I never have time to read that kind of thing, and I don't have a computer with Internet at home, which means I'll never have time. Anyhow, we will see what happens and I'll keep you updated whether I like it or not.

Thing#7...iPod tOuch!

I don't have an iPod Touch but my friend does, and I have to say I ask him to see it every chance I get. I think he gets upset with me because I always have it. I just want one. The technology is amazing with all the things it can do. I think the coolest thing that I saw is that if you get the Nike + iPod compatibility all you do is start running and it will track your time calories burned and other stats. The marketing is good because I'd buy right now just for that. Of course the Nike + is sold separately, but nonetheless pretty sweet.
When it comes to music, what the iPod is known for, it gets better. Instead of a wheel that you use to find your music, movies, etc. you can just TOUCH the SCREEN. Who would of thought that we would have such awesome toys?!?! Anywho, I also like the fact that the Internet is easily accessible, and you can pinch your fingers on the the screen to make it smaller or move you figures away to make it bigger. I could go on and on but I will spare you...
See I have an 80GB iPod, it is good but the Touch is better!

Color is In

I really enjoyed exploring the Flickr Color Pickr. It's amazing all the different colors and different pictures you can come up with. It's much better than the mappr and montagr. I mean the map thing is cool cause you can see different places and know what it looks like with out even going, but I could get a book out from the library and do the same thing. The montagr is a good idea but it doesn't give enough picture. I mean the picture it recreates is blurred and I've seen better. But nonetheless is still a good idea. I think that I am more interested in colors anyway and the different pictures that have vivid color and clear imagery, it blows me away. There are many talented photographers out there. It's amazing!

Flickr....!?!?

Flickr... I really like this site. It is a great way to share your pictures, whether being art or family. I like the idea of being able to find other photographers and sharing ideas of different ways to take photos or even being able to share family life with other family members who live across the country. Also the editing tools that they have available look pretty amazing. Although I like the site now, I do not like that you need a yahoo account to be a member of Flickr. I would like to be apart of Flickr, but I don't want to have an account with yahoo. So... I think I'll skip the Flickr and just look at other peoples pictures.
