Works for Me Wednesday
WFMW
This weeks tips are probably not terribly original, but it was news to me a couple of weeks ago. So if your technically/internet challenged this might help.
If you haven't found my delicious.us, then you're missing out. It's a great place to organize your web finds in one place. Once you create an account, all you have to do is browse the web and when you find something you want to save for a later date, click on the post button. When I come across a WFMW I want to use later, I post it to my del.icio.us and tag it with a WFMW. Then when I'm ready to implement it, it's just a click away.
Let's not forget the mega time saver bloglines. I still haven't figured out how to get the little button on my blog, but I LOVE it! I subscribe to my favorite blogs in one place. No messing with on line subscription services that send you email reminders. No checking Rocks in My Dryer every minute for an updated post. This free service lets you organize all your favorite blogs in one place and all you have to do is check the list and they tell you when they update.
Also, if you add the subscription button to the top of your page in the links section, then while you're surfing, if you find a new favorite just click the "sub bloglines" and it will be saved for you! How simple is that! They even walk you through adding the button. If I can do it, so can you! (Don't forget to subscribe to me if you're liking what you're reading! :)
Last is about helping YOU find all my tips in one place. I'm putting links to all my WFMW's in one entry so you can find them quickly everytime you link to me. Every time I post a new WFMW, I'll be adding to the sidebar link. So whether you're a first time visitor or a regular, you can find all my handy tips in one place.
If you've got a great internet time saving find, leave a comment! I need as much time saving help I can get, especially since my time seems to slip away on the computer. For more tips go here.

hi! look at you, with your WFMW already up! I usually don't remember until Wed night. Or Thurs. Gah!
We DO have a lot in common! Hello? You understand what it's like to live a momlit, and even included those very words in your sidebar! A kindred spirit, indeed.
Adding you to my bloglines! And for the delicious thing (i always get the .s in the wrong places, so i'm omitting), I CANNOT figure it out. So not techo savvy. (Or flickr. I can't figure out flickr either.)
I love bloglines....
I really need to check into the whole delicious thing (and holymama, I never get those dots in the right place either, so thank you for freeing me from them).
I've heard great things about delicious. It's hard to learn and incorporate a new system, but I really think delicious is worth doing. Thanks for the motivation!
Carol, You're right. Learning something new is hard, but once the bottons are installed (they walk you through it) it's so handy. Saving stuff is just a click away!
my tip today was bloglines! I finally discovered it, what a time saver!
I really need to try bloglines. I'm still linking blogs the hard way. :)
