That was my dilema just now... Initial reaction was to just pick up the phone and call one of the gang for answers... Then I remembered Alex mentioning, how can one get answers independantly and learn from it? That's when I decided to check out slideshare presentation itself and found this really great, simple and clear step-by-step instruction on how to exactly upload slideshare presentation into the blog.
(Note:Another great site for answers would definitely by YOU TUBE.)
Oh, was wondering whether anyone can help answer to my problem - after uploading the slideshare presentation on how to embed slideshare slide into the blog, I decided to edit it a bit and add on my comments to it. After trying numerous times, each time, I edited that particular post, the slideshare slide actually changed to something else. WHY? WHY? WHY? Help... anyone who can solve this mystery?

Double, Double, Toil and Trouble...
EXTREMELY true. Was supposed to have our 3rd online discussion yesterday, but don't know what happened, my internet connection went "kaput". The most unfortunate thing was that it happened when I was half way updating my blog. Boy oh boy... I had to really count till 10 to restrain myself from throwing the whole laptop away because I wrote quite a lot of stuff, but in the end, couldn't save it 'cos the internet connection decided to act up. Oh well...
[Apologies... actually what I typed out was partially saved as a draft, which I found out later. So managed to upload it]
Whole of yesterday, I was experimenting on Audacity, how to tape my own "lovely" voice singing one of my favourite songs with a background music. The good news was that I managed to do the taping fine, but when I saved it as .WAV or even MP3, guess what - NO SOUND came out when I played it. I also did a short video taping of myself explaining about the "Establishment of Working Agreement" slide. Tried downloading in You Tube, but after waiting for such a long time, an error message came out. Really, not my day yesterday...
So, to cut the long story short... we had to cancel the 3rd online discussion, I decided to chuck everything aside because nothing went right that day and watched Roger Federer create history instead. :-)

Mini video on Establishing Work Agreement
OK... tested out doing a mini video using the digital camera. Decided to video tape a segment of our presentation slide on "Establishing Work Agreement". Managed to download the video into my computer. Registered in You Tube so that I could download into it and share with others. But don't know why it's taking such a long time... god knows how long it'll take... still keeping my fingers crossed that it'll download fine. GOOD LORD... guess what happened... the minute I typed keeping my fingers crossed... the internet connection went off for a minute and then couldn't come back.
If not, maybe you could view through this blog first:

After a hectic week
Sorry, guys. I've been really tardy keeping my blog up-to-date as well as keeping to my deadlines for the Mission assignment. Had a really dreadful week... filled with lots of having to conduct trainings, organizing Open Days, ya-da, ya-da, ya-da... I'm sure everyone's experiencing the same as well. Had to work yesterday, conducting training for super small kids... pre-school until Std 4 in a church. Wow! Truly an experience. Imagine having about 50 kids - all hyperactive, running around, screaming on top of their voices... but eventually, I SURVIVED!!! So, that leaves me with today to catch-up on my blog and other blogs, gotta check out ELGG as well... not to mention try to complete my part of the assignment.
Oh ya, forgot. We held our 2nd online discussion last Sunday. Melinda played host this time round. Don't really know what happened, but everyone's internet connection was really bad. Ling was in and out of the conversation due to the bad connection, I experienced lots of static disturbances causing voices to break up... all in all the online discussion did not go as smoothly as the previous one. But, the group pulled through and we managed to get quite a far bit discussed with action items given to everybody.
Am signing off now... hope to be able to catch my breath once next week starts.
