Thing 6

OKAY...I'm on a ROLL!!!! :)

Teng Lee: on Thing 5 Nancy Vue: on Thing 6!!! :)

**ahead by one****

you can't beat that...I can already smell Chi--pot---le....(however, I'm guessing that Teng hasn't and probably won't be reading this since he isn't one of my follower's....)

Alright, so back to business...so I signed up for all of four different news sources....very interesting indeed...

Well...I do have to say, I did have a little bit of too much fun in Digg...it was very easy and the layout was NICE. Reddit was a bit more plain though...and not nearly as fun as Digg...it just didn't have all the gadgets and pretty colors :D....MIXX is nice too I'd have to admit....you get to create your own group and chat with people! Like you could probably create a group called "Addicted to baking and not doing my homework"....now that'll definitely get some posts & comments. Newsvine....ummm...definitely very nice because you have a good menu bar that lets you breeze easily through each category...making life a bit easier. However, its hard to decide what is credible...because you can post up your own articles...unless you do some real hard research...and honestly, I just don't have time for that. Although I do have to add that Newsvine does give you some options to add it to your RSS Account!! Yayy for Newsvine eh?

The one great thing about these resources is that you can definitely use it as a resource to sell yourself...hey if you're a great writer and do a great job..you possibly might have people overloading your email, making you and giving yourself some popularity status...who doesn't want that? About connecting other social medias to my circle of resource for this...I wouldn't even know where to start...

So conclusion, If i'm looking for some real fun and maybe not-possibly-credible news, I might have to log in. If I want the real stuff, I'd have to rely on my Google.com/READER to find the quick easy credible things that I already have...or rely on my MSN news.

Until next time...
