How To Organize Your Desktop

To organize a computer you should use a lot of folders. Label your folders accordingly to what you see is best fit such as word documents you should put them in your word document folder and keep your games in a game folder and etc. You could also use a hierarchical form of organizing your folders by making a sub folder in the folder already created. i like to use this style of organization because it gets rid of all of the clutter on your desktop and everything will have a place for it.


Tagging- labels that you give an article so it is easier for people to find
example: if you write an article about a crime you would use tags such as crime, police, etc


Social bookmarking - it is sharing all of your bookmarks so that your bookmarks from your main desktop will  follow you to any desktop.
Example: You bookmark Google then you leave your desktop and you could still access your book marks from a different computer and all you have to do is sign into a website such as Dingo to access.

My Weekend 11/14/11

I had a four day weekend this last week and it was fun. on Wednesday my and a couple of friends went to go get something to eat at Blimpies and we had sandwiches. On Thursday I played call of duty modern warfare 3 and then i hung out with my friends. Friday I played a game of football then played some more of Modern warfare 3 with my friends. Saturday I went to the last high school football game for this year. Sunday i had to do some projects so I stayed home all day and did them.



The tools I learned in this class could be carried over into any other class such as English because I could use Google docs to write up a report and send  it to my teacher. I like to learn the new tools in this class and i look forward to learn more in this class.
