eAction

Blushing today I must confess an error. I am sorry. I’ve been alternating this eAction blog week by week with the Linux Learning Curve blog. Early this morning I took my Dad to the city for a CT-scan. In my mind I knew when I got back I’d have to catch up here, but somehow I thought it was the LLC blog’s turn this week. Lo, when I got home and checked the files I see that I’ve already given LLC two weeks in a row, and skipped the eAction blog/ezine last week.

Okay, I’m done slapping myself. I have had things like Dad’s terminal illness and family communications on my mind, but don’t think that’s a valid excuse. .. Oops, I was going to assume you forgive me, and to go onward. Help me to do that instead.

If you’ve been holding off on listing your web pages in the social bookmarking sites until I can say whether they work, I’ve got a progress and news flash for you. Yesterday, while searching for something else, I found a link in the search engine to my bookmark at Deli.cio.us, entered just last week. So apparently that effort is paying off. It’s a dull routine of copy-pasting the links and info, but my method, once I got a long list of URLs and their title, description and keywords lined up, is to open two bookmark sites at a time, and to copy and then switch window and paste into one, switch window and paste into the second one. When done, save each, and go back to do the next one.

Extra tip: Could one of your kids do this for you if you have a long list of URLs to promote?
