Firefox

After my very brief encounter with Firefox, I can't say that I see any real benefit to using it over IE. IE's browsing tabs are just as easy to use and I don't get the Firefox extensions at all. I installed one, but then didn't know where it went. How do I access it again and/or how do I know it's working?



I did like changing the text size in Firefox better. It seemed to have more gradation of text size than IE.



It would take a lot more of my time to really get to know Firefox better to find out if it would be worth the switch or not. I'm sticking with IE for now.

Using Flikr


I found this picture on Flikr entitled "Summer Day in Pittsburgh PA". Too bad we haven't seen many days like this yet this year.

Downloading eAudiobooks

My first experience in downloading an eAudiobook from NetLibrary on my home computer was extremely arduous and time consuming. It took about 2 1/2 hours to download and transfer one 8-hour book to my player.

Now that I've installed all of the necessary software and updates, downloading books is a breeze. I especially love the NetLibrary Media Center. I think it is so much easier to use than Windows Media Player.

Just getting started

Although this is my third blog that I've started on Blogger, I am looking forward to learning more about using all of the gadgets and other features that are available.
