Will discuss in more detail tomorrow.<br />4)"Get started" means exactly that. By pointing you to the green button I expected you to mess around a bit and see what the site can do. Tomorrow in class I will give you a couple of examples and suggestions for creating a dashboard, and by early next week yours will be up and running (of course, you may tweak it as time goes on, but at least you'll have one that works)Dr. Prestonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870733544828744669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384832010390166324.post-72052297712576732282011-11-01T22:51:20.167-07:002011-11-01T22:51:20.167-07:00I'm a little confused on how to even get start...I'm a little confused on how to even get started on the Netvibes thing.

Netvibes creates a personal dashboard where you can link a bunch of different types of apps that you want to use on the internet.

It is a way to easily distribute a list of headlines, update notices, and sometimes content to a wide number of people. It is used by computer programs that organize those headlines and notices for easy reading." <br /><br />By reading the article about RSS, I found out that RSS is a better way to be notified of new and changed content than via email notifications. Also, people in the past had to "bookmark" the websites, but the RSS sends relevant and up to date informations/notifications for us to read in our spare time. I can use the RSS by subscribing and keeping track of the websites I'm interested in and give it a try. <br /><br /><br />Search Engine:<br />http://rss.softwaregarden.com/aboutrss.html<br />http://www.problogger.net/what-is-rss/<br /><br />Samuel Moon<br />Period 6Sammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13449502792355955132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384832010390166324.post-23018377811736719192011-11-01T11:06:52.566-07:002011-11-01T11:06:52.566-07:00"RSS (rich site summary) is a format for deli..."RSS (rich site summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content.
