Shelfari

I liked this activity. It can help you organize books you have read, want to read or will read in the future. It could help you keep up with the books that you use in your class throughout the year. I added one book to my shelf and when I tried to add another book to that shelf I lost the first one. I enjoyed exploring this and if I decide to use this feature in the room or for own personal use I will ask for help on creating and saving my bookcase shelves.

Life is as easy as you make it! Life is as easy as you make it!
I made a street sign on the first discovery resource for Week 10 and I tried twice to copy and paste. It pasted the text for the sign but it did not paste the sign. I tried it twice with copy and paste and I am not really familiar with other ways to put it in my blog. I will ask someone to help. I enjoyed this activity.

Twitter blog for activity 18 and 19 together.

I explored the twitter website and I finally did get an account and was able to tweet about what I was doing. I never could figure out how to get the picture taken and posted. I tried to find some people that I could follow and when I went to google I found a bunch of celebrities that I do not know or like so I was no interested in even looking at any of their tweets. I do not think that this is something that I would use in my spare time or even in the classroom. I do not have time to keep up with other people on twitter much less to tweet so others can keep up with me. I am a very personal person and if I want to tell others what is going on I can do it in a less private way than to tweet about it on the computer.

Tagging

I think that tagging is a useful tool. It helps you find info about the topics that you are interested in and it lets you do this in a quick way. I think that this feature is very effective in helping teachers find info to use in the class and it is a great way for people to share ideas. I like the tagging feature.

Del.icio.us

I explored this website and I think that it is a good website to find info on different topics that you are looking for. It makes it easy to find research that has been compiled from a lot of different people.

Sandbox/Wikis

I enjoyed reading every one's favorites. I tried to include a favorite of mine but after I thought that I had established an account to do so it still would not let me add to the page.

Wikis

Wikis seems to be something that could be used in the classroom. I on the other hand would be afraid to use it considering that it can be changed by other people. I would be afraid that something would end up on the site that would get me or my school in trouble. Therefore I would not be willing to use it for anything. I guess I am just a worrier.
