Setting up a Bloglines account

I succeeded in setting up a Bloglines account. I specified BBC news and art and books sites. I am looking forward to seeing what information ends up at my fingertips.

A look at Google "More"

I was very impressed with the scope of the sites available; the sky is the limit! I was particularly impressed by "scholar" and the type of articles which are readily available. I can certainly see how I would recommend this feature to customers.

Do I find Facebook useful or a great time-waster?

I have to say that although I have gone through the motions and created an account I am not at all comfortable or interested in using this tool. I can see the benefits to Facebook, but I can also see how it can take over . I prefer to speak to people personally or write a letter. My time on the computer is limited to use at work and e-mail when necessary.

• How easy or difficult was it to find articles that needed editing? Were the errors you found factual or grammar / spelling?
I did not find any glaring errors in the Wikipedia articles I looked at. I did look at several articles on the same topic. I do feel confident that I could spot errors, particularly spelling errors, in any article I read.
