I’m learning

Digital natives won’t be impressed, but it was big news for me when I launched my web site, started a blog, got settled on Facebook and LinkedIn and even downloaded a ringtone (I’m not a big cellphone user). So believe me when I say there is LOTS for me to learn.

I had wondered before how to link my blog posts with my Facebook profile, and today Dan York pointed the way. As he notes, it’s quite simple once you can find the Import tab. Turns out it is cleverly concealed under the little triangle beside Write Note. Of course, he’s got so many possible places to link that he’s sorry it only lets you link one.

Joan Donogh of In Formation Design, who designed my web site, also  revealed that you don’t need to see an RSS button on someone’s blog to subscribe. Just look up, way up, at the line that shows the URL of the page you’re on. If there’s a feed, you’ll see a little blue RSS feed icon. Click on that, and you’ll be able to subscribe.

Of course, YOU knew that, but I did not.

What things have you discovered lately that you’d be somewhat embarrassed to say you did not know before? Chances are, I don’t know them either!
