tHiNg 16 Getting Organized

I Google: A place for many different Widgets to come together. You can choose which ones you want, and where you want them. However, I did have problems trying to get my other emails to load besides my G-mail account. I think I Google is a neat idea; However, I personally would not use it. I would consider using it as my homepage if I could figure out how to utilize it more, but for the time being its not for me.

The second part of getting organized is using an online calender. I decided to try 30 Boxes. 30 Boxes allows you to keep track of everything and anything, but it allows you to share it with certain "buddies." This is a neat ideas for teachers to use with parents. Only the teacher and parents can access it and it is a good tool to communicate with. As far as personal use is if I was still baby sitting I could use it to show my "customers" what dates I am booked and what dates I am available. However, as a current student I find it easier to use my planner book, or the calendar on  my I Pad simply because these two items are very accessible throughout my day, and its quick and easy. With 30 Boxes I would have to log in and go from there. I think its an awesome idea however for my current use it is just not practical.
