First post!

                                                                 "It's a trap!"

The name of this blog is for the very simple reason that it is "miraculous" that I have an online blog at all. I have always done my best to avoid technology and am only doing this as my hand has been forced - thanks to Learning 2.0 Basics training!
I do not have a Facebook account nor have I ever twittered! Further to this, I have only ever sent two, that's right two mobile phone text messages in my life! (thus far anyway!) This is because (as depicted in the above picture) a great deal of time can be easily "wasted" whilst Facebooking, twittering and googling, etc. As a busy parent of young twins my time is a precious commodity and does not extend to online social networking. (Not yet, anyway!) There are people who, wrongly or rightly, believe that Twitter is for twits!
However, I do believe that technology is unavoidable in our modern world and it will be interesting to discover what all the fuss is about!

PS The Technologically Challenged Just in case you think YOU are TC (technologically challenged), there'sstill hope:1. Compaq is considering changing the command "Press Any Key" to "Press Return Key" because of the flood of calls asking where the "Any" key is!
