7. Create a blog post about anything technology related that interests you this week. Camera Phones

Camera phones contain all the necessary ingredients for completely invasive stalking: a microphone, camera, personal data on the user, location information, a chat and call history -- you name it. And victims carry them everywhere they go.
All that's missing is the software that lets stalkers take control. This new software, called snoopware, does just that. Snoopware -- both legal and illegal -- enables stalkers to secretly seize control of a phone's electronics to listen, watch and spy on their victims.
Welcome to the creepy new world of cell phone stalking.
Although cell phone stalking is new, there's already plenty of bad information, urban legends and false beliefs about it in circulation.

I replaced my cell phone this year and I am glad I didn't get anything too or so modern.

#7 Create a blog post about anything technology-related: Skype

Our assignment was to explore something dealing with technology. I tried to find something on Yahoo, CNN, and the Baltimore Sun webpages. No luck! So, I finally went to Google and tried Skype. I looked at it's sight and Wikipedia. It didn't make a lot of sense to me. I can call anywhere for cheaper. Do I use my computer or is it just another phone company? I looked at the overview, but that didn't help much. Here are its free features:
calling other people on Skype
transfer Skype calls to other Skype contacts
video calls on Skype
one-to-0ne and group chats
conference calls with up to nine people
forwarding calls to other Skype names.

#6. Have some Flickr fun and discover some Flickr mashups & 3rd party sites.

This isn't very creative, but I did it. I don't have a picture of Suzy to use. She is my beautiful black and white, look alike Norwegian Forest cat. Making a trading card was not difficult. It is quite easy, if only I had known what to include.

Don't you just want to smile when you look at these guys. Close your eyes and imagine that you are hugging that moose!!

#5. Explore Flickr and learn about this popular image hosting site.

As you can see I opened my flickr account and posted a picture to my blog. I had trouble with it. I didn't notice that pale print above the picture in Flickr that was the link to post it on my blog. I had to call Annette for help and she easily walked me through it. I think I will try another one. I wish I had a picture of my cat to post. What do you think of my second picture?

These are some of the wonderful Joppa volunteers. They are some of the nicest people I know. I am so blessed and fortunate to have them. I can ask them to do almost anything and they will. This picture was taken at the 2006 Volunteer Celebration at Bulle Rock. It was a fun place to visit even with the rain that day.
