Week 10 blogpost
My favourite tool is my facebook page. It allows me to keep in contact with family members who live a distance away. It means I can take five minutes to check out what people are up to without necessarily spending an hour or two long distance time and charges. I can access facebook at 1 am. or 7 am, whenever it suits me. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CCafXUIxrSrwGZOlS_g_h8ZJGlhtGcroEYa1O88zYpY/edit

My 3 email management tips aren't really tips. However, I find that if I make sure to check my email at least once daily, I can keep up to date with the emails. I also ensure that I delete the junk or otherwise uninteresting emails on a weekly basis. I set time aside to actually go through and delete mail every week so that it doesn't become overwhelming. My final email management tip is simply not to give out my email address whenever possible, and don't sign up for many "customer points" cards. That helps alot.
For the past 6 months, I've either been in school or my co op placement at Dillon Consulting here in London, ON. The co op was a fantastic experience! I used almost none of the training I'd received in class, lol, which sounds bad at first. However, I learned an entirely new skill set that has proven more valuable than I'd originally realized.
My favourite topic for this course was the information on Outlook, both with Cheri and Laura. I used to use Outlook Express but switched over to the full Outlook. It was great except that I didn't know how to use alot of the features. This is something I can use both at home and in the workplace on a daily basis.
I would like it if this course covered general printer information. How to actually install a new printer with your home computer for instance.
