It was fun doing LibraryThing and listing books
I still have some to add that I am in the process of
reading. I really need to finish some of them!
The Popular Reading collection is detrimental
to my finishing others as I keep seeing ones
I want to read as I leave the library. The latest
is Lynne Truss's Eats, Shoots and Leaves with
its Panda joke. My punctuation could use some
fine tuning and I hope this will help

del.icio.us
I can see the usefulness of del.icio.us in allowing you to
have access to your favourite sites quickly from any internet
connected commuter.
I can also see it being useful to connect to useful websites
from within Research Guides and the Social Science Data
part of MADAR. However I need to explore if you can
organize your bookmarks into subject folders or some
such thing or whether you would set up different
del.icio.us links for each set of items.
Like most of the other products we have been introduced to,
it is very easy to use - as long as you keep track of your
id and password!

Delicious!
I spent sometime today trying to remember my various
logins and passwords. I have 3 e-mail accounts at different
servers and can never remember which one I have used
for what.
I still have Flickr to sort out and, of course, have now added Del.icio.us
with, I have now realized, a completely different id than the other
sites. I suppose this could be considered a good workout
for my failing memory.
I am working on my 10 sites. At least I realized you could insert
a link

T-Dog looking sweet and innocent
This is T-Dog or Tundra. One of my daughters "rescued" her in Edmonton. She now lives in Ottawa. As befits her border collie genes she is one smart dog and will have your sandwich as soon as your back is turned. But she is a sweetheart who loves her tummy rubbed.

Pictures of furry friends
I'm having some problems getting the pictures
I have uploaded to Flickr into this blog
Here is a url

which should show a guinea pig - not sure which one or
whether this is the head or other end!
And two more that should show T-Dog or Tundra
a very intelligent Border Collie mix that one of my
daughters "rescued" in Edmonton

But I have not worked out how to have the photo display in this post
