Flickr Photos - Week 3: #5

This is one of my flickr photos with a 3rd party mashup through the dumpr website.
I had the most difficult time with uploading my flicks to this post....not sure why. I usually use my Ringo account for stuff like this..but I was trying to follow the MD 23 Things instructions. I find Ringo to be a little more user friendly...I may have to investigate what went wrong and get back to you with my findings....okay

MERLIN - Week 4: #9

As I went snooping around on the MERLIN website...I was overwhelmed with tons of bits of information. None of it really grabbed my interests except for the site with the new search engines. I will continue to look for items of interest as the week continues. Wish me luck. Sheesh!!

You Tube Playlist - Week 9: #20

OK!!...So I was a little anxious to use YouTube...sue me.

Who in the world has the time to watch all of the interesting flashbacks and clips from the past on You Tube. Not me.....so I'll be watching them in alphabetical order based on a playlist that I have designed for myself for the next 10 years...lol. :o)

This is a very extrodinary website. I have found clips from all of my favorite tv shows from the 70's and 80's.

RSS Feedback Info - Week 4: #8

Guess wht I learned this week???...I was just introduced to the RSS Fees through the XML website. I found some information to be very useful and I thought I'd share it with you now.

RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication and Rich Site Summary. RSS is an XML-based format for content distribution. Webmasters create an RSS file containing headlines and descriptions of specific information. While the majority of RSS feeds currently contain news headlines or breaking information the long term uses of RSS are broad.

RSS is a defined standard based on XML with the specific purpose of delivering updates to web-based content. Using this standard, webmasters provide headlines and fresh content in a succinct manner. Meanwhile, folks use RSS readers and news aggregators to collect and monitor their favorite feeds in one centralized program or location. Content viewed in the RSS reader or news aggregator is place known as an RSS feed.

RSS is becoming increasing popular. The reason is fairly simple. RSS is a free and easy way to promote a site and its content without the need to advertise or create complicated content sharing partnerships. Cool beans right???
