The end of the road.....or is it?

Well it took a full year, but I have finally completed all the tasks. I would have to say that the program did introduce me to a few new tools and concepts even though I had my doubts that there would be any tools that I haven't used before. I really enjoyed playing around with the image generator as well as the virtual computer. Virtual Computer was the tool I selected to explore from the list of Tools of the year list. My least favorite tool was Technorati, I thought it was quite messy and not very user friendly. It could be that I'm just not a big fan of blogging.
From the entire exercise I got to learn about a few new tools that could and probably will come in handy, but if this program teaches me anything is that if I want to keep up with all the latest tools it is almost an everyday task.
Overall I was quite satisfied with the program and think it is very useful for everyone to get through it and lets hope the CCLC takes advantage of a few of the tools on offer.

So Farewell Web 2.0 till we meet again!!!

eBook

We all know that books are here to stay and they will never disappear. However we live in the age where people are always on the go and these days so many people spend hours and hours in the car. That's where eBooks come in perfect. They are for the people on the go and people who are visually impaired. These days it is so easy to download an eBook, place it on your Ipod and plug it into the car stereo. And if you are stuck in a car for most of the time at least you got something to keep you occupied and amused. Or in some cases even calm. We all know being calm in a car with quite a few crazy drivers around us isn't easy, so this can help. This doesn't however mean that eBooks are strictly to be used in a car, they are great for people who enjoy to listen rather then read and best of all they are mostly available free of charge. Some audio books can cos $100 dollars and more.
I say bring on the age of freeware and shareware.
Who says nothing is free!!!
