Exercise #16 Zoho Writer

I enjoyed writing an article for the Zoho Writer and tried to add a photograph from My Pictures by using the Zoho Import button. I expected the photo to be added into the article but it was put into a different frame, then both were listed separately in the side panel. The photo took a long time to load and then was excessively large filling more than the frame! I ticked the size adjustment button and the photo filled the frame, but I thought I'd lost my article! However I realised I could retrieve the article by clicking the heading in the side panel -whew!!
I tried to attach the address of my Zoho Writer article to this blog but the hypertext address gave only the front page of Zoho Writer. I then emailed the Zoho Writer article directly to the NS Libs gmail address (It has cleocappelli on it!

Exercise #6 Technology

Now that I am over the first hurdle of creating a blog (never having done this before) I am looking forward to doing all the 23 things and becoming more confident with the computer functions. I would like to put the photos of my travels in Italy and Spain onto Flickr and go back and make a better card (the photo of Amalfi is somewhat blurred) I would like to communicate with my granddaughter on one of the social networking sites.

Flickr experience

I enjoyed the YouTube clip about Flickr. I then looked at other photos and thought being able to search through using tags was very useful. I am hoping to put some photos of the Amalfi coast onto a Flickr account that I will arrange in the future. A link to an image of the Amalfi coast is

Learning about blogs

Registering on blogger.com was somewhat confusing because I had composed a new profile in gmail with new Logon and password. When registering on blogger.com, I was asked for email address and passwords -were these the same as the gmail address and password I had just used to get into the site? Once I had been talked through the procedure I became more confident and am now looking forward to expanding my knowledge of blogging. I want to make a blog about my impressions of Amalfi and Capri, places I visited two years ago. I hope to put some of my photos on my blog.
