I arrived late on the 30DC, and I'm on dial-up, so it is harder to catch up. I am trying to do 2 or more days in one, am feeling a little overwhelmed with all the info I have to wade through. The downloads recommended are going very slowly cuz of dial-up, sometimes I get cut off and have to re-do, but I will try to hang in there cuz I really want to learn.
Still going through setup problems with some things, especially when I switch back to Firefox. Some of the add-ins don't want to install on it. So far I am loving the new browser "Flock", and found the video on youtube on how to speed it up: wow, it worked. I no longer have to sit and twiddle my thumbs waiting for pages to load. Very cool.
I just wish I could read twice as fast, AND retain what I read! Not easy when most of it is new to me. I am making little notes with copy and paste to help me keep the gist of each new lesson handy, in my own words. That seems to help me remember better, too, besides giving me something to refer back to.
I am loving the 30DC, and thank you to the people behind it!
