Feedback

I know that i will keep using the Igoogle page. I have set it as my home page at home and think it is way better than nine msn or any of those other home pages. What was unexpected was that i laurent a few new things and a few good websites.

Post about Technology

I have just got Microsoft office 2008 and have installed it of my computer at home. I think that it is good that they offer you the choice of keeping Microsoft office 2003 on your machine and have 2008 on there as well. I think that having the two versions on there is great. It allows me to go back and use the older version if i don't fully understand how to use the new one. I think that they should have done this with Windows Vista. It would have been allot better if they gave you the option to have a dual boot of Windows XP and Vista. I know that you can have a dual boot of them but now where in the installation did it give you the option. I think the new features on Microsoft office 2008 are really good. Some of them make life so much easier and making a word document so much faster. I know that some people don't like change but i would recommend this to everyone and if you are not happy with it then you have the option to go back to 2003.

Web 2.0 award winners

I looked at Istart because from the small note on the side it looked interesting. This tool helps people track your health and fitness regime. The person enters in there workouts into iStats' system and it monitor there progress. I think they should make it so you can download it to a PDA or something small so you can take it around with you so you don’t have to get to a computer and type it in. I think the most useful feature was the part where is shows you a graph of how you are going.

Read about web 2.0

My understanding of web 2.0 is a new and improved version of the world wide web. It is the making of hosted websites and applications. For example social networking sites, video sites, wiki sites, blog sites and a few more.

Twitter

I think that twitter is pretty much like MySpace but has a few differences. One difference is that instead of writing a comment on your friends page you do it on your own and then your friend comes and has a look at your page and writes something about it on there page. Friends can restrict access to who ever they want.

Image generators

I think this website was great http://www.imagegenerator.org/. I got to make my own magazine cover with my picture on the front page. It was so easy to use and it looked so really.

Igoogle

This site is really good. I have made it my home page. I like they way that you can have all your favorite links on the side and that it also tells you the weather and the latest news. I think google should space it out a bit more. I am used to seeing google's home page and it has barely anything on it. I think they need to move a few things down the page to space it out.
