Playing with gadgets
I know I need to get cracking with this blog if I am to finish on time, so I'm off to the library site to see what I'm supposed to do next. In the meantime, I've experimented with some new gadgets down the right side.

still practising blogging
Had a rather inauspicious blogging start today, because I forgot which email address I'd used to set this up. However, a few tries finally revealed the one that Blogger would accept.
I'm trying out some 'features' down the right side of the blog. Adding a photo worked okay, but I found the inclusion of Google News didn't interest me, and I didn't have any YouTube channels I wanted to include.
But I'm having fun experimenting. I do have another blog that I write on regularly but I'm too nervous to experiment with it, so it stays in the same format month after month. With this course I feel free to try things out.
By the way, the other blog is called mydog.
Just had the idea of experimenting with the bar across the top of this text box. I'm okay at putting in links, but I'll try out some other things.
First, a different font and a different size.
Second, colour. (Hey, this is fun.)
Okay, now to play with some formatting of the text.
A list of ideas to try:
- YouTube
- Flickr
- More photos
I'm out of ideas.
But as I learn more
Notions will fill
My head.
I must say, all this font and colour mix-up looks terrible. I've learned a lesson and I won't use it so much in future.
I've had a try at adding a blog counter, also.

My first post
I'm experimenting on this new blog with adding all sorts of 'features'. I guess I'll be changing them around when I see how they go.
