Thing #31: Get organized with Plaxo

Had lost of fun playing with Plaxo. From taking a tour of Plaxo to creating an account and exploring the numerous options, it was both easy and interesting. I found the Calendar, editing my profile and the ability to share sites, photos and videos most useful.

It would be a really good LIS team organizational tool. Perhaps as a backup to Outlook calendar reminders. Websites and videos for eLibraryWiki pages could also be shared quite easily.

Purely from a design viewpoint, the various options and categories can be initially overwhelming. As an organizational resource though it achieves its main purposes quite well.

Thing #29 : Shakespeare scrapblog

Thing #29: Bigblue's Shakespeare scrapblog

I found Scrapblog easy to use and just like the previous tools, totally addictive. The ability to upload Photobucket images is just sensational. After initial problems I simply used previously saved Photobucket images uploaded on the Standalone. Selecting unique transitions for each page was great. It took some time to publish though. I found working entirely from the Standalone was the best approach. Can't wait for the next activity.
