23 Things Assignment 5

I saved 40 links (both work-related and personal interest) in my del.icio.us account, bundled them under

  1. 23 things (all links provided in your website for our assignments)
  2. Health (MedlinePlus, MayoClinic...)
  3. Magazines (Macleans.ca, NewYorkers, people.com, Scientific American...)
  4. Money (Morning Star, MoneySenseMagazine, GuruFocus.com... )
  5. Newspapers (TheGlobeandMail.com, NYtimes.com, TheStar.com...)
  6. Tools (Converter, Translator, Dictionaries: xe.com, metric-conversions.org, Merriam-Webster Online, AltaVista-Babel fish translation...)

Now I can access all my favourite links from any computer anywhere, and only need to save once, that is really amazing! I will transfer all my favourite websites to my del.icio.us account for sure when I got more time.

The feeds (work related) that I have chosen are,
  1. CBC Health News

RSS and Bloglines are wonderful tools, very easy to use. They are my one-stop shopping information centre for work, save me lots of time.

23 Things Assignment 2 - Part 1


Healthy living means making positive choices that enhance your personal physical, mental and spiritual health. You make these choices when you:


Eat nutritiously;

Build a circle of social contacts to create a supportive environment of people who care for you and respect you;

Stay physically active to keep your body strong, reduce stress, and improve your energy;

Choose not to smoke; and
Put an end to other negative lifestyle practices.
