It's Fotoflexer by a Nudge

I compared Picnik and Fotoflexer for my assignment. Both were very easy to use but I found that Fotoflexer was more user friendly for me. I was able to upload my photo, crop, resize, and play around quickly because the menu tabs were big and gave you a pictorial idea of what it would do. I was able to send my photos to my desktop and Flikr. I could have also sent them to FaceBook or Twitter and several othe social sites.

Pandora

I checked out YouTube and watched a couple of recorded live Jeff Beck videos. It was fun and he is alway a hoot to watch.
I picked Pandora and set up a Jeff Beck Radio Station and then added Robben Ford and the Hellecasters using the add variety button. So far, the people and tunes that have come up have been great. This is a keeper. Other than some GUC and NKU every once in awhile, I get really, really tired of regular radio.

My daughter gave me her old MP3 player and hipped me to BonkEnc and I've been downloading all my CDs to it. It's great but I really hate things that run on batteries. It's a trade-off. I'm still waiting for the solar panel hats with storage to run my must-haves.

e and Audio books

I was able to download the WMA Audio Book "April Fool Dead" by Carolyn Hart, on the first try, but downloading the Adobe PDF eBook "1984" by Orwell, took a few tries.

Feeding the RSS

An Interesting way to go about collecting information. This is new to me but very usable.
