A Now Year Older Cobbgoblin Speaks on Digital Tools and Whatnot
As the title suggests, yesterday was indeed my birthday.* I am now 22. That, however, is not the purpose of this post. ** The purpose is for me to speak on the tools used, and how much I’m impressed with them, or how I’ll think they shall be used. I’ve already started using del.icio.us to bookmark sites for my senior thesis, so I guess that’s started to come in handy.*** What really baffles me is Omeka. Actually to for me to be fair,**** this class as of now just feels like we’ve been thrown a ton of tools and are now expected to use them. I’m not sure how everyone else feels, but I kind of get the sense that we’re all just talking like we know what we’re doing. I have an idea of what my group is going to be doing, but projecting those alumni****** online into a time line without a greater understanding of HTML code******* is a daunting task.
That’s all I have for now.
And now for your moment of zen.
Excelsior!
