Music:)Alley Blog is a technology blog in which it tells about the recent technology news that has to deal with music. I found that Music:)Alley was a very interesting Blog…. One in which I may continue to read. The post that made the blog catch my attention is this one Lala to Close - Itunes.com to Open . I found this one very interesting as the subject matter was about itunes, which, is a tool I use very frequently. If the recent purchase of the lala site by apple actually brings what rumor is saying then it would definately be something I would pay for a subscription of.
This blog didn’t really have any political nature to it that I saw. This blog does site sources of which it used… Some of the sources which it used I noticed were articles from journalists. I found that this blog mostly differs from the local news we have here where I live, because we don’t really have an entertainment section. So things of this nature are the topics which we must either read on the internet, in magazines, or watch on tv to hear. I didn’t find anything I did not like about this blog I liked the way in which it was laid out as well as the way the information was presented.

The general idea or purposeMoonBattery Blog is making fun of political figures or political actions. For example my favorite post which Ithought was pretty funny myself is You’re So Vain a post poking fun at Nancy Pelosi all in return for the support of the National Healthcare. This blog has a very anti-democratic blog as they make fun of the government a lot in it, and are very against the actions of the government.
This blog I found to be very funny and not serious at, which, I would say makes it very different than any local news which I have ever seen. Local news is usually very serious, and to the point so that they can get the information out to their readers/veiwers. This blog had sources for the information which they posted within their blog for every one of their postings which I veiwed. I found this blog to be very entertaining, however, I didn’t like how everything seemed so unserious to this writer. Even things that shouldn’t of had any humor in them, the writer made into a joke.

I choose to write about the blog Hit&Run , this is a blog about different laws that are being enforced. It shares how they are affecting us. My favorite blog post on Hit and Run was Driving While White . It was a great blog about the new laws that Arizona is enforcing on illegal immigrants. It gave his personal experience to help everyone understand what this law was really going to mean for everyone.
I don’t really know as if this blog really takes a particular political stand. However, it sure does give us an opinion. The blog also uses many different sources including some personal experiences as a source which really I thought helped me as a reader understand what was going on. I thought it was a great aspect of the blog. I thought the information presented in this blog was much more creative than those reports written within our local newspaper. The blog caught my attention and wanted me to keep reading. I wanted to find out about what was going on.
Although I thought this blog was great, and it caught my attention very easily. I did think that the blogs design itself could have been slightly better. I thought the design kind of was a little bit of everywhere, and the blog was too random.

Diigo and Flickr are both ways of sharing your personal favorites with others. The only difference is one is to share your favorite websites while the other is to share your favorite photos. I think they are both great tools for people who spend a lot of time on the internet. I personally think that flickr is a better tool, as many more people enjoy sharing their personal photos with others than what they do websites. I have used other websites for photo sharing. The one I am most familiar with is myphotoalbum. This a website that you can buy membership to… I personally think that the free flickr website is just as good. The only advantage to using myphotoalbum is that you can also buy products with your images on them. As for me using flickr and Diigo. I may continue to use flickr. However, Diigo is not something I would see myself using often. Diigo is however a great tool for those people who like to share websites.

Before starting the class CITS 220 I had never heard the term web 2.0 before. If I were to tell someone who didn’t know what web 2.0 was I would tell them that it is a way to interact with others on the internet. It can include, blogging as well as social networking sites. Social Networking sites can allow you to do some of the following things; talk to others, post pictures to share, share websites that you like, and play games together. Yes I participate in sites that are web 2.0 sites they include; facebook, myspace, my blog, twitter, diigo, linkden, formspring, and

Hi! I am Sabrina. I just turned 22. I live in the small town of Coffman Cove. However, right now I am in Seattle for awhile, as I just had a baby early. So he has to be here in the hospital for awhile before we can go back home. I enjoy hunting and fishing, and spending time with my family. I also enjoy spending time on the computer. I am taking CITS220, because I love using the internet and all the different things it has to offer. I also enjoy trying out new websites, and being parts of social networks with friends. It is a good way to keep in touch and learn new things. While taking this class, I was particularly interested in learning about the tools that I have never used on the internet such as social bookmarking. As you can tell I currently have a WordPress Blog, although I hardly ever blog on it. I have previously taken classes on how to design webpages with DreamWeaver, and enjoy helping my fiance with web designing. I am an active member of facebook, twitter, and occasionally myspace.

So…. Don’t think your going to hear something to go running and spreading a rumor about, because well I’m not having a kid. At least not at this point in time. However, I am trying to buy a house here in Coffman Cove. It is a very nice 3 bedroom house, and I should hear back about it this week sometime to see if I get it, or if the bank will need more information and whatnot.
I am really hoping to be able to get the house. I would love to own one of my own, and be able to live on my own again. Not that I hate living with my parents, but just the simple fact that I am old enough that I believe I should be out on my own and fending for myself.
Then if I get the house I think Mike and I are going to try to bring one or two of his brothers up here to live or stay with us for awhile. I would love it as I love kids and I think it would be a great opportunity for not only us but also for his brothers. So anyways, we are thinking about that, and I think that even if we don’t get this house we may look into bringing one of them up.
Lastly, I just started my summer classes this last week. They seem to be going well so far. So hopefully I get good grades in them:) Well, anyways, better get off of here and do something more productive….. Like… Maybe facebook.

Here I am stuck in a world I hate and don’t want to be in. I can’t do anything without getting yelled at and I can’t do nothing to prevent getting yelled at. Whether it’s my fault or not I am the one to blame. Why? I don’t know.
It’s just the way things always are with my family. What was I thinking coming back here, instead of staying with friends that loved me. What was I thinking taking this AmeriCorps position that causes me to have to spend a whole other year here. Maybe it was the fact that I thought we were going to be able to move out of my parents house, or maybe it was the fact that I needed a job and something to do.
But now I am here stuck with someone who yells at me for every little thing that doesnt go his way, and I don’t know what to do about it besides get depressed about it. Oh well. I guess its life.
We’ll see what happens I guess. Maybe things will get better. Anyways, I do have a little bit of work to do before I get the Americorps position up and started. I am going to be working at the school on Thursday of this week, and it appears half of next week. Plus I start college classes this coming week which will be good hopefully that goes good anyways. As for last term I looked at my grades, and I am already doing relatively better than what I was doing at WOU with classes. So that is great. Anyways, hope the beginning of your guy’s year has caught you in a better situation than that of mine. With everything that has to do with life in general.
