Thing 9: a practical exercise (jumping around)

2009-05-10T13:27:00.005-04:00

So after several months of saying- oh yeah, I'll get to that, I had a practical exercise facing me with google docs- because Joy of Joys my staff is utilizing the new communication cooperative content tools. This is exactly what I want.

With Edwin's help and invitation to the relevant doc, I believe I have successfully edited a document with suggestions to make the self check block pop ups more user friendly. I found the google doc to be very intuitive as an editor. I have yet to figure out how to tell what editing has taken place- and by whom. Also, as a practical measure I should know how to invite someone else to share a document with me/group.

Reviewing some other folks' bloggs I find that our staff community greatly prefers google docs- either because they find it more intuitive themselves, or because the usership has reached a "critical mass" so that collaboration can take place in a shared communication platform. For that practical reason I will focus from here on out on google docs and leave zoho for an academic excersise.

Ok, so it has been about a month since I first opened the blog. I initially had trouble because eons ago I set up a gmail account and I had no idea about the password. I got that worked out and was just starting the Avatar when I had a patron problem and was pulled away for that.

Today I set up the Avatar- that sure is a time sucker- and am attempting my first post.
