Functionality of Maintenance 2
Functionality of Maintenance 2
The vertical learning curve, the world that is technology
It seemed to me that I could get into the swing of websites, https, blogging, and maintaining them. At one point I was on top of it, hours spent sitting at the laptop, cruising information on the web, responding to various message boards the list is endless. I was good at the time, immersed in the recycling of current art news, giving sound bites and generally giving a good well informed read. Using online galleries, as can be seen in links on website I tried to widen the word of Paul Talbot/News from the Shed – all became overwhelming, where do these people find the time (functionality of Maintenance 5). I set up a myself space, worked on that for a while, didn’t get into it and currently I have no idea of its status. So where does the learning curve start to become vertical? Discovering Facebook has opened up another can of social worms – not just updating your status, responding to ‘friends’ but being the type of guy I am, had to take it a little bit further, setting up groups, being administrator for many groups – how much time this takes up I have no real idea, its live every time I log onto the computer (alas not at work – some grace there, but hayho, found that I can write/respond via my mobile, will it never end!)
Everything moves at an incredible pace in technology – just coming back to the posting on blogs seeing how there are new options available linked to this, link to that, upgrade this, upgrade that a plethora of access and add ons to extend ones web identity. So what to dip my toes into web applications? I’ve set up a couple of twitter accounts; yes follow me, one as a practice (functionality of Maintenance 4) at this moment of posting, I am getting to grips with it, understanding RT #@ and all the rest, I know what will happen, there will be a need to tweet almost daily, if not more so and probably only get two followers!! Indeed I tweeted this morning, from my mobile, what do you say? Give an update on your current work@ tell the ‘world’ that you have just had a nice bacon roll! Something to think about, making it useful not just banal crap that I could write, then again somewhere I rant on will be a good startJ look I have just used an emoticon, the learning curve may have just levelled out no way, it builds on, just how much I want to develop
