all these technology things we keep learnign about, like social bookmarking, podcasts, different kinds of blogs, etc. it all seems so...unecessary to me. all of these things sound nice and useful, but ive existed without them up til now and after using them, ive only found frustration with my attempts to use these various technologies.
first, i made an account on del.ic.ous and tried to upload my bookmarks like it said, only select ones. but it ended up uploading all my bookmarks, including the ones i rarely use, such as maintainance for my computer.
i also tried downloading my first podcast from itunes. well i downloaded it and its on my itunes, but when i went to sync my ipod up, i tunes said it couldnt transfer the podcast to my ipod because itunes can only recognize up to 5 itunes libraries on my ipod. well since i take music off peoples ipods and put it on my itunes, apparently i can put anything from my itunes account on my ipod. thats just f*cking stupid.
and dont get me started on facebook. my biggest pet peeve on FB are teh applications. why would i allow an application, that states it is not made or monitored by facebook itself, access all my information? people say its fine, but i dont want my account misused, as my myspace was.
with all these new advances and better opportunities, there come a ton more problems and it doesnt seem worth it to me.
