Hi everybody!
I managed to create my account in Bloglines! Since I was not in class last Thursday, I followed the instructions in BloggingEnglish; firstly I couldn't understand well what feeds are and their purpose, but after my first search I was pleasantly impressed by their utility!
I think they are the easiest and quickest way to receive news and information about our interests, without getting lost among the millions of sites the web offers, and without spending hours in the search of what we are exactly looking for.
This week, for instance, I have found hundreds of updates about music and news from the world: they have allowed me to acknowledge events, issues and names that I've never heard of before!
So I liked very much this activity and I hope to go on using it also after the end of this course!
See you tomorrow :)

Hi Sara,
RispondiEliminaI'm glad you joined the fantastic world of bloglines!Isn't it amazing how simpler is getting life nowadays? Just a few years ago if we wanted to be always updated on what we liked most we would go really crazy to find interesting sites or "fresh" news about it,or maybe we would use more traditional means like newspapers or magazines (which are not free,of course). Like you,I think that this course is giving us the possibility to explore a lot of funny and useful tools,thus helping to become more aware of what's going on in our world.Great!We're off to a good start,just need to keep up the good work:-)!
See you later!
Ps: I love the sound of your blog,I think we have almost the same music tastes;-)!

Well, Sara, I'm sorry but I can't make a comment about this post, because I didn't fully understand the bloglines world. I wasn't in class last Thursday and, as I'm not good at using computers, I was in trouble to do my homework. I'll ask you to help me understand this new tool, ok? Thanks!
RispondiEliminaP.S. I love the music you put in your blog, too, and I love its layout, but if I can give you a suggestion, I would use a different colour for your posts. You know, pink and purple on black are a bit shocking for the eyes!
Hi the two of you!!
RispondiEliminathank you very much for suggestions and appreciations about my blog :)
Anna, you're completely right, this course is disclosing quite a lot of useful things and I think they will help me in building up some ideas for my thesis! (I really need new ideas!) Do you like The Killers? :) they're great, I'm going to see them in Verona next 8th of June ;)I love rock music as you can see, particularly alternative & indie rock.. but not only! I like quite every kind of music! And you?
Vale,have you managed dealing with bloglines? if you have problems, just tell me, I will send you some explanations! About the colours... you're right! but I like so much this combination of colours!! anyway, I think I should change something for your eyes' health :)
See you soon
Cheers
Sara
You're going to their concert,awesome!! I should stop looking through ticketone.it to see if there are any interesting concerts round here 'coz I never find anything there!! Talking about music I think this is too huge a subject we should create a blog just for it! Next time I'll post some videos in my blog..hope you'll like them!
RispondiEliminaSee you tomorrow
Bye
Anna
