RR - Web 2.0 Training - My First Blog

No wonder I have procrastinated for so long to begin this training. Having never used a Blog before I am finding this all very daunting and overwhelming. I have found the setting up of g-mail and blogs so time consuming and nerve wracking. I feel there could be more "simple" instructions for us novices. There seems to be so much jargon and terminology that I dont understand I have had to phone my supervisor at work and call on my son to reassure me that what I am doing is OK!
Hopefully, by the finish of this course I will have the skills and confidence to make use of the Internet to my advantage. To be able to understand the jargon so often used and feel comfortable to use the Internet without the fear of identity theft, and it would be great to overcome the fear of writing all these details in a blog for the world to see. Then again - who gets time to read these blogs?
But hey, I am going to think positive and give it my best shot!
