Thing #21

July 21st, 2009

I’m going to be honest.  I spent an hour and a half playing around with Pageflakes.  And, I don’t see what’s so great about it.  I found it to be cumbersome, not user-friendly, and glitchy.  I had to copy the k12 learning 2.0 template five times because it kept deleting it from my page.  I had to enter into the calendar my events for the next month three times because they would disappear.  It was very frustrating.  I followed Shelley’s directions for putting in podcasts and rss feeds, and they didn’t work.  I guess – theoretically – it would be great to find a way to combine all of my rss feeds, delicious bookmarks, podcasts, calendar, etc.  But, I became irritated and stopped trying.  Maybe one day I’ll give it another shot.  I’ll listen out for others who have found a way to use it well.

    I also found it glitchy and wondered how to “save”. I felt like things were getting lost and I couldn’t figure out how to find them again. Are we missing something?
