ATLANTA, GEORGIA - SEPTEMBER 26:  Padraig Harrington of Ireland converses with caddie Ronin Flood about his tee shot on the ninth hole during the third round of THE TOUR Championship presented by Coca-Cola, the final event of the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup, at East Lake Golf Club on September 26, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia.

I struggled with this exercise, but eventually got it right! Yay! I kept trying to upload the image under Compose instead of Edit HTML. The site is great and there are lots of fantastic photographs. I chose a golf image because I watched quite a lot of the Tour championship over the weekend. Having eventually mastered it, I could help customers with it. I think the level of expertise of a lot of the customers is above mine, so they would probably find it easier!!

Box

I found Box easy to use and had no problems joining or uploading a file to it. File sharing is now common in the corporate world and can save lots of time for staff. In the library, we could suggest it to groups of students who could possibly use it to share notes and ideas. Off-site storage is also useful to protect against loss through fire or other disasters. It's also a great way for people to be able to access files from any computer - an anywhere, anytime resource. Tosca's download of e-books is cool - great idea!
