MP3
I chose to go to iTunes to download some music. I was able to complete this task after a lot of trial and error. I downloaded a file to my home pc and into one of the library's MP3 players. I look forward to receiving my own MP3 player when I complete this assignment so that I may try to download an audio book.

Wikipedia
I do not wish to become a wikipedian! Wow, there is a lot of information here, but you would expect that in an encyclopedia. I spent a lot of time at the help desk. I did not edit an article but did experiment in the sandbox once I found it. I browsed the wiktionary and quickly left this site before I couldn't find my way out.
MovieFlix & Blinxx
I am sorry to say I was not very successful with these websites to view free movies or cartoons. I signed into MovieFlix and saw the listings of various movies, cartoons, commercials, etc., but I was not able to view them at work or on my home computer. When I searched around blinxx I kept getting security alerts and popups. I see how you have the options to view various video formats, but at the present time I prefer not to. I spent a great deal of time and felt I gave it a good try. I will discuss this with other staffers and see if they had similar problems. Perhaps someone will be willing to give me a demonstration.
Firefox
Karen had already downloaded Firefox here in Ninety Six so I didn't do it again. I spent time with it, but because I am a creature of habit I prefer Internet Explorer. However, if it were not for this learning experience I would never have known about Firefox or Netscape.
Imagine This!

My Yahoo!
I had fun setting up My Yahoo! page. This is something that can be changed or updated continuously. I look forward to playing around with this site and reading the information that is of interest to me.
Flickr

I love the flickr website. What a great way to share photos. Robin, it was fun to see the pictures of your new beau and family.
On this site you also have the capabablity of utilizing wonderful photos for free, like the one I displayed of Niagara Falls. This is the area I grew up in and it sure makes me homesick to see the beauty I am so far away from. It truly deserves to be one of the seven wonders of the world.
