Thing 28

I am starting this again. I thought I had posted this but when I checked later I hadn't. I really think I wasn't supposed to do thing #28. So here is part of what I wrote yesterday and part from today.I think I am done with this assignment. I am not done with google reader. Thanks to Allana I can say that the assignment is done. She and I have talked about my problems with the send to part of my account. I totally understand how it is supposed to work but it seems it isn't going to. BREAK THROUGH!!! I tried to send something to Facebook instead of to blogger. It worked!!!!!! I will definately use google reader. I like it way better than Bloglines. One thing I like better is the search thing so that I can look for sites that I know are there and not have to do the export thing like in Bloglines. Also Google really keeps track of sign up better that they do because Google knew that I had an account that I didn't remember. Bloglines has not switched my account to the different account since the first 2.0 class was done. Each time I went there it said that my account was not active. They had let the sites update but still gave me the message. So yes I like Google better. Thanks again Allana.

Google reader

I have figured out that I can't do this assignment. I am happy to have my blog reader be something other than bloglines but because I have to seperate google accounts one for google reader and one for blogger I can't make it work to send something from one to the other. When I hit send to Blogger it won't let me sign in. I tried last week and now this week too. I tried to just copy the link for the item I would like to send. But since that is not the assignment it won't work. I guess that means that although I will continue to use google reader I won't get the credits for this thing. It is beginning to be a real waste of my time to try to get the credits.

Google reader

I am working on this. But since I don't blog very often I was having login problems. I also had gotten a google account that I didn't remember until after I was told by them that I already had an account and had to go through the process of changing my password. Then I had never done the change on blogger to make it to the new login. I just always used the sign in from when I first signed up. So when I went to send something from google to blogger it kept wanting me to sign in and I couldn't remember what I was supposed to put in. Also I usually get to blogger from the Nebraska 2.0 site and go to participants. Anyway I will try again soon since I figured out some of what I was doing wrong. Some days it doesn't really pay to try something new. Once I get into using google reader I think I will like it better than bloglines.

CE credits

I am wondering why I didn't get credit for the thing about facebook. I had it done before the end of the month and I checked the link to get to the post. It worked and still I didn't get the credit. Oh well I guess I will try this months and if I don't get credit for that one I will probably quit the class. I don't get to really use much of what I learn anyway. I could use more of it but the people I work with think that it is a waste of time.
