Tool Evaluation - Day 1

Well, it's Sunday, and I am taking this assignment to heart! I've been working since I got up this morning on using the tools I've chosen and setting up all kinds of accounts and honestly.... does keeping track of all these blogs, pages, wikis and the lot get easier as time goes on? I mean, I am now on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and I have started working on a portal for our employees and managers to use this technology for internal brainstorming, training and communication!

Whew! It's been a long morning.

I get FB, and use it quite often, so it's a no-brainer there for me. I don't quite get Twitter and LinkedIn so much...  but I am content to be a 'lurker' for now. My intranet portal is coming along nicely - I can't believe I haven't done this already! I used TeamLab for free, and I think it will work well for us.

I have a question about Twitter - does anyone know how to delete people that follow you? I seem to have picked up a follower that I really don't want to have, and I'm not sure how to get rid of them. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks for listening, everyone! Have a super Sunday!

Far be it from me to question science....

"The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible."
When scientists talk of electrons and discuss their movements and act like they actually know what is happening.... it frosts my cookies. We have no proof that electrons actually exist. None.
