OPENID

Yes I like the idea of one openid for lots of websites. I have often come up with the problem of my username or password being used by someone else and it is soooo frustrating, not to mention trying to remember all the different names! I think my google account already opens up other sites because when I click into my blog I no longer have to sign in. It seems to be automatically there. I like the idea also of the openid server being myself. I will look into that further. Although they did say 'with a bit of work' you could do it!! Hmm. Would that be too much for a TeddyBear?

Well here I am at last, about to begin the getwithitweb2 blog. I have finished my university studies for this semester and so had better hurry up and concentrate on this programme! I have read the online privacy and security sites and found them very informative. I would have liked to have known about them when my children were younger but it is probably a wee bit of already done that now that they are older and are more aware of the security risks of accessing the Internet. I believe though that it wouldn't do them any harm to read the sites for themselves even though they have grown up with computers. It would be helpful to advise patrons of the websites but those that use the library computers probably wouldn't want to 'waste' their time reading them as they have a limited time span for using the computer. And would they really care seeing the computers are not their 'personal' ones.
However it also wouldn't do any harm to give advice to patrons about online security because they are public computers and in the interests of others it would be beneficial if all care was taken to ensure information was not compromised in any way.

I love to read. Reading transports me to the realms of make-believe or not. Reading de-stresses me. The most simple pleasure in life can be just to curl up with a good book, a cup of coffee beside one and a muffin to eat. I dream of having my own library complete with walnut walls and big, comfy chairs to lounge in. A roaring fire would go down nicely but I don't need to read books to dream that one. I can't imagine not being able to read and I thank my lucky stars I was born in an age when schooling was a priority and learning to read was number one. I love the smell of libraries and books. It's up there with the aroma of fresh coffee beans.
Vive le reading!
