Q1: Which thing have you found most useful so far?
A: Firefox, love the add-ons! Still using IE a lot though - purely out of habbit I think.
Also can't stop doodling as many people may have noticed, life is scheduled around doodle polls now!
Q2: Do you feel more confident online using social media sites?
A: I feel the same as I did before I think. I may have become more confident blogging, I certainly give it less thought than I used to - it used to feel like I had to prepare more before blogging, now it's just like scribbling random thoughts on screen.
Q3: How can you apply what you've learned to your work?
A: I could blog about stuff that's relevant to other people. I could tweet interesting newsworthy topics of interest to members of my team. I certainly am doodling a lot (did I mention that already?). I already use Feed My Inbox. Firefox is nice too.
Q4: Does this style of delivery suit your learning style?
A: For something like this, yes because it allows everyone to work at their own pace so I can do it when I want and spend as much or as little time on it. It is easy to forget to do your "things" though but so far so good. I don't enjoy blogging at all tho!

Twitterbooking
I haven't been on twitter in AGES! I can never think of anything to microblog about on twitter which is strange as I love facebook and do tend to update my status there.
My use of facebook is personal and but twitter for me is professional, perhaps this is why I feel I must be more careful what I say on twitter - do I really want all my work colleagues knowing when I've stuffed myself too full of apple pie and custard for instance? Not really, but to my friends that would just be typical! So I spend too long considering what would and wouldn't be appropriate to tweet. Maybe this is why I also hate blogging, I'm a perfectionist, I hate the fact I haven't been though my blog posts at least 6 times with a fine-tooth comb, draft after draft before I put it "out there" under the scrutinizing eyes of anyone who cares. I think worrying too much about what other people think about us can be a huge barrier to blogging of any kind.
Anyway, had fun tweeting for a bit.
