I have a useful book  that I have found from the new arrivals at my library. It is relevant to the course ICT. It gives us information on how to go about on creating Wikis, Blogs, Facebook, and more. It also has a list of websites that we can visit. The title of the book is Blogs, Wikis, Facebook, and More: Everything You Want to Know About Using Today's Internet but Are Afraid to Ask by Terry Burrows. I have listed a few website addresses to go to for more information.

    Book Description

    Publication Date: April 1, 2008
    For both internet gurus and online novices, this handy mini-encyclopedia explores the useful and interesting sites—big and small, popular and obscure—that make up Web 2.0, the new online community. From YouTube and Flickr to eBay and Facebook, each website and online application is explained through step-by-step screen shots and examines what each site does, why people use it, how to get started, and any special features. Simple yet thorough definitions for commonly used internet elements—such as tags, bookmarks, blogs, and podcasts—are provided as well as little-known usage tips for expert surfers. Grouped by type, this detailed guide also offers dozens of alternative URLs that cover similar online territory, but with their own unique takes.

In each chapter, Burrows addresses some new interactive, exciting way the Web in now being used. For example, Burrows has a chapter about blogging.

      1.0 out of 5 stars Don't use Carbonite November 4, 2011
      By Becky Blanton
      Format:Paperback
      When you get to backup services, remember, Carbonite is horrible. They sell or give away their customer's email addresses, cause security breaches, lose files, no customer service. Horrific company.

          Happy with my studies so far

           
           
           
          Studying is like walking on the pedestrian bridge it needs determination and committment, so far i'm quite satisfied with my progress. Though we still have a lot to do and so many submissions. Remember all of these submissions will be regarded as the final exam and will be marked externally, that scares me a bit but one needs to focus.

          Little did I know about the computer tactics but then through this course was so I have learnt a lot so far, and I am so proud of myself. I was so afraid on using today's internet. It I so interesting to know that the web gives us an opportunity to share from peer-to-peer. Blogs, Wikis, Facebook and more are mini encyclopedia of useful and interesting sites, big and small, popular and obscure, that make up today's internet community.

          Wiki



          I have learn't something new yesterday that we need not to undermine ourselves and not to fear what we don't know. It is good to explore, recently i was so worried about starting up a Wiki thought it was a difficult thing. But the i realised that what we need to do is to search around from wikis in libraries that will give you an idea on how to go about. I have visited a Wiki on public library.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_library

          Playing around with your PC helps


          It really helps to play around with your computer, I just realised that today and also got that from the help of my classmate. Each an everyday we always learn something new, it also helps to ask around from your classmates. I have been struggling with the widgets on how to go about finding them. All to find out it was all under my nose.

From the presantations that we had this week i have learnt a lot e.g e-books and the fact that it will diasdvantagious to make use of the e-books in rural farm areas and also it will be costly.
