Wiki Update - Recipes!

The Ryerson Recipe Wiki is an opportunity for all of us to share our favorite recipes. Think about all the wonderful food we've enjoyed together at our Holiday Festival Parties, retirement parties, etc. I've often asked and been asked for recipes after one of our socials. This venue is the perfect place for everyone to publish their favorite. It would be like the community cookbooks that all of us have on our shelves at home, slighty dog eared and certainly stained on the pages that contain the recipes that we make over and over again.
The process of setting up the Wiki account was very simple. Again, as with all of the activites to date, it's the content that is problematic. What to write about that you won't mind seeing in print next year! Editing is a simple process, as is commenting but don't try to delete your entry, it won't work.

RSS Feeds

Well, week 2 of RULA 2.0 is upon us and the world of RSS. There are website, that cater to every possible interest. It wasn't too difficult to set up the RSS feeds but for someone who only reads the living section of the newspaper a couple of times a week, I wasn't sure I really wanted to subscribe to 10 feeds. Is it better to know as much as possible about the world around us and be overwhelmed by it or is "ignorance bliss". I guess I'll monitor the feeds I selected and let you know.
Here are the feeds I've selected so far, ( I say so far because it's becoming addictive to search and add), I suspect I'll need to weed the collection before very long.

Blogging Observations

I've discovered it's much more difficult to post to a blog than it is to set up a blog site. It's great to be able to test out new (at least new for me) technologies during work time. In our busy schedules we tend to put off learning something new that is not compeletely necessary for work. Being forced (in a nice way) is a good thing! My observations regarding blogs and blogging from my vantage point on the 1st floor are:
computer software is awesome - anyone who can read can be a computer wizard
unfortunately, not all computer wizards are created equal.
