Introduction

I am planning on using this wiki to log my activities with not only the XO laptop, but with the support-gang if relevant to my discovery and work with the XO.

Feb 23-28, 2009

This week I received the XO!! VERY exciting! I went right in to discovering its capabilities and short comings. I "played" with it before upgrading in order to understand some history of where it was and where it is now. I then upgraded it which was fairly smooth. I wanted to understand more of the gnash/mash stuff so that I can help those needing to upgrade on RT.

Spent most of this week helping with the support gang in revising the Contributor Program. Didn't have much time with the XO. But, enjoyed seeing the capabilities of my 8 year old and my 6 year old quickly figure out many activities on the XO. They will be my control group for now. I have been considering activities or learning modules that could be developed. I would love to create or help create a genealogical or family history type collaborative program that kids could use to document and share about their families.
