reflection......

well, i must admit when this all started i was a bit overwhelmed and didn't think i would make it through. i think it has been good to become at least aware of all the things out there in cyber land and to at least be able to have a half sane conversation about things..... should that be required (hehe).
i think the internet and the possibilities are immense and that people will have to make choices that they are comfortable with and remember that life can and does still exist without the internet.

gaming

from pong to just about any game you can think of via the internet. it is easier and faster to play on line but we lose something too. interaction with a "real" person whom you would know is replaced with a "real" stranger.

google maps are

way cool but i like the mapping through the phone listings even better. plus they are more up to date. the one in the phone listings shows me living in a car in downtown snohomish.....hehehe.
that's because my listing has no street address.

online application and tools

duly noted.

search engines

i like the comparison of the the three main search engines...
a lot to read at the present time but i'm definitely keeping it for referring back too.

enjoyed looking and playing pod casts. the world at your fingertips, eh?
