Module 8

I have just spent hours trying to remember all the blogs I like to peruse and adding them to my google reader. I firstly went through my email accounts hoping to clear out some of the subscriptions that constantly clog up my emails. This was mostly easy but there were a couple of mailing lists that I couldn't find an RSS feed option for and they will continue to come into my email. I feel like I am getting more organised as I sort by bookmarks with delicious and my blogs and news sites with google reader. I have even got an RSS feed of my delicious bookmarks into my google reader. This, I have to admit is somewhat confusing but I as I google reader more I'm going to find it clear (as mud) I'm sure.

It has also been great to revisit many of the sites I have stumbled across as I have been doing the course. On Learning Putty I was learning about safe uses of Facebook. There were a whole lot of ways of maintaining privacy that I was unaware of.  I knew how to set some of the privacy settings so that I didn't turn up in general searches. How.to.wired also was an interesting read, with handy hints on 'ungoogling' myself it i ever need to.  Also things that are useful to teach students and parents as well.
