Mission accomplished!

I created a document in Google Docs published it to my blog, and sent it to Sarah Glassmeyer for revision. She revised it, and I republished the post. It was really easy, and Google Docs replaced my original post with the revised one. The original date that I posted the Google Doc stayed the same as well. How easy and fun is that? I enjoyed the interactive assignment for this segment of Blue2.0

Using Del.icio.us and Google Documents

Creating my del.icio.us account was easy. All that experience we've setting up accounts for previous Blue2.0 modules helps!

One of my links hasn't been saved by other people yet, but I clicked on the 'saved by other people' link in some of my other bookmarks, and found some more interesting links. One link was for instructions on how to convert videos for your iPod in Portuguese.


Another interesting link I found was for commonly used formulas in Excel 2003. Hopefully the formulas in Excel 2007 won't be too different.

Adding the Connected Library del.icio.us account to my network was easy too.

Google Documents is easy to use as well. The interface is somewhere between Word and Wordpad.

One link was for instructions on how to convert videos for your iPod. It was in Portuguese, though, so I'll have to brush up!

I found another link for commonly used formulas in Excel 2003. Sigh! Our Excel 2003 is about to go away :(
Hopefully the formulas in Excel 2007 won't be too different.

Here is the link to my del.icio.us account.
