Week 3 - FeedMyInbox

Another week's worth of Web 2.0 completed, hopefully on time!!
FeedMyInbox seems to be an interesting site. I was unable to watch the short video on how to actually navigate my way round the site so I had to ask my colleagues for some help, but I soon got the hang of it.
It's not that bad and I would rate it reasonable easy. If customers were interested in such a service they could find it somewhat simple to use. I guess it's up to the individual person to want to use it so I can't see how useful it would be in the workroom. I mean, not everyone wants updates on things all the time.
I personally do intend to use this again. I hope I can find that long forgotten webiste I was on last month on a random search so I can add it.
As for promoting it to customers, well, if someone came up to me and asked for such a service I would definitely recommend it to them and promote it to those younger customers.

Week 2 - Picapp

This is my chosen image from Picapp. I thought it looked so serene and peaceful which is so unlike my mind at the moment!!
Picapp looks like an interesting site and is quite straightforward to use. I'm not exactly sure if it would be useful to a library website but I can see how it might be useful to customers who are looking for images to enhance an assignment or presentation. I might go back and do a bit more in depth searching on this site when time is more easy to find!
I would promote this to customers if they ask for help in finding images like the ones we find here.

Round 2 - Here we are again - Box.net

Here I am again, Round 2!! Well, I finally managed to get on to it and complete the Box.net tasks. All I can say is, wow, why I have I not heard about this before! It seems like an ingenious site.
I can see the possibilities of using this in the workplace and sharing information that would be useful to everyone. Personally, I do see the advantages of using this site with people I want to share files and such with. It was reasonably easy to use and navigate around. Uploading files to Box.net wasn't that hard. I didn't try sharing anything with anyone because, to be honest, the files I uploaded weren't stuff I wanted to share. I might share some files later on.
I believe that customers would find this quite easy and useful to store their files if they didn't have anything like a USB with them. I think I would promote this to customers because I think they would gain a lot from it.
