Still 2.0-ing … Introducing The Diary!

August 17, 2009 at 9:06 pm · Filed under 2.0 Program, keil

It has been a few weeks since I blogged so I would like to say sorry to my great mass of loyal followers that read this blog.

The original intent behind this blog was as a means to talk about, monitor progress and demonstrate applied knowledge of things learnt in the 2.0 program. So far I have not been using this blog for those reason. OK, a few posts here and there to say that I have done this and that, buts thats it. We have come a long way in this 2.0 program and I feel that I learnt about things that I will continue to use long after the end of the program. In keeping with the spirit of this blog, and to try and publicly improve my 2.0 participation, I will be keeping a daily diary for one week to monitor what I am using from this program and just how often I use it.

My goals:
Post once a day
To be honest (not try to use the 2.0 techneques just so I can report on them)
Try not to ramble
Try to make some kind of sense

So here goes …..

Dear Diary,
Today I am not off to a good start. Normally I arrive ultra early to work and this gives me plenty of time to access a computer, but today I arrived with just enough time to get my stuff away and make a coffee before I got stuck into the daily grind. Carrying loads of books from point A to point B all day long did not give me time to sit and use a computer so I had to wait until I got home before I managed to use anything. Thanks to a nice add-on in Firefox I was immediately informed that I have half a bazillion (give or take a few) unread tweets to read, I only follow a small number of people but they are really chatty! Half an hour of reading and following interesting links and I was ready to move onto my next use of 2.0, Facebook. I admit that I am a bit of a nerd, I play face book games. After battling it out in mafia wars and improving my superhero I chatted with some friends that I wouldn’t normally talk to unless I was at the pub. Well after I was done with them I left the computer …. lets just skip to the next part involving 2.0. OK, So a while later I came back to the computer to continue my nerdiness, watching anime. Then I realised that I have been telling myself to start this diary, so I dusted the cobweds off my blog and here I am.
Well the first day seen me use 3 2.0 discoveries. 1 of those 3 I had been using prior to this program and the other 2 I will probably continue to use after this program as I find them very useful. It may appear that I do not like using this blog but thats just not true. I do like it, I do like to read other blogs. Its just that I dont have a use for it now, one day when I’m all grown up and have informed opinions I will be shouting them from the rooftops, or this blog. Most likely this blog cause I dont like to climb. Damn, just realised that I have already broken a goal …. damn rambling, its a curse I inherited at birth. Dont know who gave it to me but I will find them oneday and then I will have my revenge! MWHAHAHAHA …. ummm, ok. Anyway, so ends day 1.
