Tue, 19 Dec 2006 23:25:23 +0000 http://twopointouch.com/2006/12/15/your-office-on-the-web/#comment-6197 [...] I was tipped off to Ian Delaney’s page today via Stephen Downes. Ian had indicated a number of ways to use your computer in more integrated and productive ways. Following his advice, I worked on a netvibes page for myself today. I haven’t been using Google.docs or Google calendar or an online to do list. I wonder if it will make me more efficient or less efficient. I like my paper planner. I have a variety of lists there - groceries, study work, family plans, meal plans. It works. It is battery-free and never crashes. I like the ability to channel a pile of RSS feeds to a single place. I can read The Guardian, get CBC and BBC. I can tap into tech feeds. I had just begun to use my blog to channel information more efficiently. I can see that this may be faster and simpler. Now I need to find the RSS codes for some of my favourite edutech blogs. [...] [...] I was tipped off to Ian Delaney’s page today via Stephen Downes.

In the New Year, when I'm also writing about professional stuff full-time, I reckon a how-to every week will be useful for people and hopefully make up for fewer 'general' posts. This stuff is really easy, but people need to (a) know it's there and (b) be encouraged to just dive in. OK.

This article seems to have proved quite popular, so I should probably do more 'how-to' guides. I’m delighted it was useful, Nelba.

I can imagine it being very handy for teachers and indeed students, where 100s of licenses for MS Office could amount to a sizeable chunk.
