German shepherd dog and tiger are my most favourite creatures in the world!
I have a German shepherd dog but I don't think I would ever afford to have a tiger.


The good things I find the PicApp are:
1. No hassle to sign up.
2. Easy to use, just search the pictures you want and copy and paste.

The downside is:
1. Slow (and I can only see the first page for some reason, when I tried to click 'Next', nothing happened).
2. Not plenty of pictures to choose from.

I don't think I would use it again, I would rather to use some other website.

Box.net (Round 2, Week 1)

Since we started the web 2.0 training, Box.net is the first thing I tried to use even before I totality understood it and now I feel it is so convenient.
As part of our Chinese book selecting process, the book shops send us very big lists of the book titles to choose from and also we have to add some other titles we may want to order from them. Because we have to do it individually from each different branch, the person who is in charge with it has to combine the lists from each of us. Think of there are 10 Excel forms which each has 10 pages, what a time waste. Fortunately, now we have Box.net, and also we can do it at anywhere, not even using email (My brain has difficulty to remember people's email address).
