Getting deeper

Having explored items 8 and 9 of 23 things, I'm wondering if there's room in my brain for what's left to learn! The RSS feeds concept looks useful for very specific interests, but unfortunately when I looked for the RSS symbol on several websites, I couldn't find any. However, I did save an interesting blog under favorites in my Bloglines account. But it's good to know what that all means for future reference...and the MERLIN site has a veritable wealth of links!

Took a while, but here I am catching up on week 3 of 23 things, while week 6 has just begun...but I did get an A in my online Criminal Law course that ended Friday. That was something new related to technology - the whole process was online, including duscussion and exams. I liked taking tests whatever time of day worked well ( early morning) but didn't care for the impersonal nature of it.

The aspect of technology that I am inspired to write about is different, however. It's about my husband, who is diabetic, being able to record his blood sugar levels - at least five times a day - in his palm pilot, then once monthly downloading the data to his computer, and then sending the information to his doctor via email! Isn't that amazing?
