# 10 - photos and reviews
I wrote a review of Worlds End, a peninsula that feels like an island, in Hingham. Luckily, even with 10 previous reviews, no one had mentioned the kayak lessons given from the park. I had also been there so often that I had many photos so added five of my own. This was fun !
rss feeds
I got behind during the rss feeds week because Google shut down my blog. Trying to catch up on the rss feeds part, I think I got one for the Wall Street Journal and Comedy Central, , so far. Feeds two aspects of my life.

It's classified
I LOVE Craigslist. I've rented a house through it and helped my son find summer jobs and athletic equipment. My one caveat is that when one advertises on it, the responses can be fraudulent. My blog was shut down because in showing one of the responses which was trying to get me to hand over my bank account #, Googel thought I had a spam blog. It took 6 days to get the blog unblocked. So just be ery cynical about your responses and then enjoy Craigslist. Our very reputable hospital now uses Craigslist for most of it's job postings. The Globe and Herald are quite expensive and get many fewer responses. I looked at the on-line classifieds of those two papers and was very unimpressed as far as number of ads and ease ofg use.
Social Networking usefullness
I would expect that social networking could help with giving me ideas for free lance things to do after retirement for interest and profit.
I would like social networking to elicit ideas for my current job especially as regards technology - like things we are learning in this course.
Perhaps social networking could help me when the time comes to sell my current home and find another smaller one on Cape Cod.
I do photography and oil painting for pleasure but would like to earn some money at it, so perhaps social networking could help with ideas for that.
Finally, perhaps social networking could help with tips on travel to places like France.
