Where am I with Frontpage?


So, where am I this week? I have been trying to figure out how to publish my website using Frontpage, using the directions given in the blackboard lessons. The instructions are great. Frontpage looks like a great product and I am finally, making, headway. 

Yay! Lightbulb goes off. Read more. Read Margie's blog about the class. http://margieswebclass.blogspot.com/See where that takes me... and yes, I am wondering if I need to follow the tutorial step by step! And to be honest, I don't think I will. What I will do is use the tutorial, but do my webpage, and not the example.. let's see if that works.

This is the link I went to for the tutorial. Its quite probably familiar to a few of you already.. I'm a little slow sometimes haha.

And yep, that is the one that is on Margie's blogspot about this course. I told you I catch on quickly, not! lol

I'm still struggling with the concept of how to follow the tutorial but hopefully I can work out the kinks quickly. Onto the more fun stuff. 

My link to a library related blog this time will be; http://connectinglibrarian.com/. I like this blog because its fairly direct, and it discusses what its title implies it will be discussing. The subtitle for this blog is "connecting new ideas and technologies with library service". Its last entry was in July 2012, however there are many links that you can click on the right hand side of the blog which makes finding the information you are interested in, fairly convenient.


What a great image of one of my favourite actors playing one of my favourite characters. For those of you who don't know, the actor is David Tennant and the character is Doctor Who. This jpeg comes from the website bbc.co.uk/doctorwho. I like this image because it makes me laugh because he is testing something by licking it, by tasting it, by exploring it in a tactile way which is very much in line with this particular Doctor Who manifestation. If you want it to link back to libraries and library staff then you could say that exploration, however we explore, is something that libraries and librarians, in my opinion, should be prepared to do, for themselves and for their customers. Exploration leads to information. Information leads to knowledge. Knowledge leads to further exploration.
