Digital Literacies

Or at least some people seem to be going crazy.
Seb sent me this link the other week and you will laugh like I did when you follow it.

maybe Seb knows that emails have been driving me nuts lately.

The other one who is going mad is the guy who owns the cat called Mr Lee. Not just that he names his pet in an idiosyncratic way. But the fact that he not only has attached a web cam to his cat, but he blogs it all.

See here.

Wow Thursday already. Time for an update. How about a trip to a website to see other people with the same name as you?
Go here.

Funny way to network… you can link up with others who share your name . It’s quite fun to see what’s there.

Maybe you are more interested in finding out that if you are in Britain now and reading this (which you are) you are more likely to be a woman between the ages of 18 and 34 than any other type of person… see here.

I am amazed by this:

They now account for 38% of game players. Women over 18 represent a significantly greater portion of game players compared to boys under 17.

This sounds whizzy and all counter intuitive, but then there ia also this list here:

• iVillage Parenting Network
• Huggies
• The Full Experience Company
• BBC Parenting
• Galaxy Radio
• hairboutique.com
• Foxtons
• La Senza
• FCUK
• Pregnancy-info.net

which provides details of where most women are going online. Not so funky, huh?

The original report is here.

For those who are just getting into social networking online, you could do worse than start on Club Penguin … and to entice you …

Dress up your penguin, decorate your igloo, be the first to discover new areas and lots more, when you become a member!

But what is NOT mentioned here is the introduction to capitalist practices through networking – the poor little penguins have to work to earn money in order to do anything much on the site – by making pizzas…

My New Apple does not seem to work as well as some of the others.

(I have been silly again. See full set here.)
