After checking with my babysitter for advice, I headed down to Future Shop to learn about Ipods.

Of course, I don't read directions...so I didn't know how to even turn it on.....It has no real "on" switch - instead, it turns on automatically after being plugged into the computer. It also recharges by hooking into your computer which is really neat as well. If you unhook it from the computer you turn it off by holding the play key.
I googled Itunes in order to figure out how to download music.

I struggled with this 3 times. The computer kept telling me to load a bigger download because of my Windows application which meant that I had to start over.
After downloading the material, I then listened to a great video about how to download music.
Sop far I have downloaded 5 albums from my own collection....Now I have to learn how to make a playlist so I can look cool at the gym!
Playlists coming soon...but overall I would rank learning how to use an Ipod without the directions.....6 out of 10. I'm sure if I knew more about technology it would have been easier!! (Or maybe if I read directions...)
Cheers,
Verena:)
