Social Media last post!

This year I have been exploring many web tools on the internet. It has been fun. Although some days I really didn't want to do what we were doing I'm GLAD I did because I realize I learned a lot about some web tool I had no idea existed. I have to say the one tool I learned a lot about is Google. I didn't know there was much more to the search engine, and I learned that it a lot like Yahoo in a way. I also enjoyed the personas from Firefox! They are really cool! I loved how I was able to make the toolbar my own and not something that was just given to me. Then we did a thing where we can add a picture or make your own thing on Favicon to put on our blogger next to our web address! I really did like this class over all! Mrs. James YOUR AMAZING! I would like to take social media 2, so that I can learn more perhaps! Well as I said I had a good time, and learned a lot!

Glog & Kerpoof

A glog is a mulitmedia poster online. You can to Glogster.com and make your own. You can use this for making a presentation for a class. You are able to link on here so if you have a topic that you want alot of info on and you can get it from a site you can just link the bubble and as soon as you click on to it your webpage will show up. Its also for if your just wanting to have fun and making something for friends or just to write radom stuff with pictures. I used it for fun mostly. I have been thinking abolut using it for a presentation for an upcoming class. Its alot easier I think then using a slideshow, so that you can have all you need on one page and not having to link every slide you have to create. You are able to add effects on the glog. You can edit a picture by adding a frame, and you can creat text bubbles. There are many fonts and stickers you can use to make the glog your own. You can upload pictures as well. Its really fun to play around with!

Kerpoof is a drawing, story book, movie making and you can make a card. Its kinda a site for younger kids. If you have a young sibling you can show them this site and they can go on and make an account and just have fun basicly. Although me a 16 year old had some fun with this site, and its really cool that if you make a cared you can send it to someone. You are able to make a congrats, thank you, mothers day, fathers day, earth day, invitations, valentines day ect.. I also liked the story making one. They give you characters to mess with, and you can pick a story line. From what story line you choose you get certain characters. The drawing is fun as well, but you have to earn points in order to get more drawing tools. You get the points by doing the activites on the site. I would recomend this for any child to play with. It gets them involved on the computer and starting to learn the parts of how it all works.
