Week 3

I really liked the Bloglines exercise. I added a few things that I would be interested in like "24 hour museum" because my major is Art History and I would like to eventually become a museum curator. I also added "A Painting a Day" which allows artists to post paintings for sale. Another feed that I added is " Back in the Day: 1950's and 60's". I chose to add this blog because I am facinated with the 1950's and like anything that involves that time period. I added Mary Anne''s blog so that I could keep up with the new innovations that she has come up with. The last blog that I added is "Dictionary.com: Spanish word of the day". I am trying to learn Spanish and I think that this might help me a little bit along the way.
As for Grokker. I didn't really like it. I found it to be very complicated and complex and when I am searching for something I would much rather it be simple and to the point, however, I do understand the benifits of Grokker and may try it again in the future.
I think that I am a visual learner. In order for me to accept information and interpret it I need to see it. I think that learn 2.0 goes with my learing style as it involves a lot of reading to fully understand the tasks. I also like the fact that we are actually able to try out the technology that we are learning about.
