I have learned so many web 2.0 tools while making my blog. I would have to say that <a href="http://imagechef.com">ImageChef</a> was the funnest tool. I love the idea of putting your own words into a picture. I also discovered <a href="http://docs.google.com">Googledocs</a> , which I feel would be very helpful in the future. I have <span style="font-style: italic;">already</span> used googledocs when I forgot my flash drive at home. I loved being able to experience the web 2.0 tutorial. I wish good luck to another rotation of web 2.0. :)bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-23310186983500230722010-01-13T13:02:00.001-08:002010-01-14T13:03:20.735-08:00Wordle<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-oQo0m6FpdRif3WwyhAMVjMCuRzEhUDB2Wb0AU41x41l66rIigF3uwH-qsHlfvKg5mRkO1av1qYc4OhtRzSB4eS3VZQl5M5NE7xDzd-SutKf30cKaESgfFB1Lxrkrf_CqST06i1b2mTQ/s1600-h/Picture+1.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 261px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-oQo0m6FpdRif3WwyhAMVjMCuRzEhUDB2Wb0AU41x41l66rIigF3uwH-qsHlfvKg5mRkO1av1qYc4OhtRzSB4eS3VZQl5M5NE7xDzd-SutKf30cKaESgfFB1Lxrkrf_CqST06i1b2mTQ/s400/Picture+1.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5426704031757782130" border="0" /></a><br /><br />This week, I visited <a href="http://wordle.net/">Wordle</a>. This is a site where you can make word mosaics out of poems, stories, or just your own words. Wordle can make any word passage look beautiful. I made a mosaic out of everything I've blogged about since I created my blog. Making a picture is very simple. All you have to do is press "create" on the website's home page, then, right a passage of your choice. Next, press, "go" and then you can change the color of your wordle by pressing the "Format" button. I think wordle could be helpful in alot of ways! I hope you enjoy wordle as much as I did.bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-76898025134840243002010-01-12T19:18:00.000-08:002010-01-12T19:32:46.924-08:00Google DocsThis week, I visited <a href="http://docs.google.com/">Google Docs</a>, on <a href="http://google.com/">Google</a>. Google docs is a application on google where you can share a document with somene on another computer without making a second document. You see, if you keep just making copies to another computer by E-mail, you may get confused on which is which when the other person sends it back. With Google Docs, it's the same document, when you send it back and forth, that makes alot less documents and alot less for your computer to take in. Go to the link above, and then make an google account. After that, create a new documnt and invite friends to share the doc. with. Its that easy. I'd reccomend Google Docs for anyone who has problems dealing with big reports, with Google Docs, there is no problem with all the organizing. I hope you find Google Docs as helpful as I did. :)bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-61755968290000724572010-01-11T13:11:00.000-08:002010-01-12T19:15:40.852-08:00ShelfariThis week, I visited <a href="http://shelfari.com/">Shelfari.com</a>. This is a website were you can keep track of all the books you've read. You can see my shelf on the upper sidebar to the right. These are the books read in the past year. Making my shelf was actually really easy, all I had to do was make an account on the website and add all the books you would like. It's that easy! Shelfari is a great website for keeping track of all the books you have read, are reading, and plan to read. I would reccomend Shelfari to anyone who loves to read, like me. :)bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-80362310475171537802010-01-06T12:49:00.000-08:002010-01-06T13:20:02.126-08:00Book Talk on Voicethread<img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyNjI4MTI3OTEwMDYmcHQ9MTI2MjgxMjc5NTIzMSZwPTIwNjQyMSZkPWI4Mjg4MTYmZz*yJm89ZmQ*N2I1YjRjYzM3NDBkODgwNmFmOWNhYTIwNzA3ZTgmb2Y9MA==.gif" /><object width="480" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=828816"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=828816" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="480" height="360"></embed></object><br /><br />This week, I visited <a href="http://voicethread.com/">voicethread.com</a>. Voicethread is a web site where you can add your voice or caption to a picture. I made a Book Talk (or review) of "Twilight" by Stephanie Meyer. Creating my book talk was simple and fun. All I had to do was create a account, press the "create" button, and then press the "upload" icon, and then pick a picture you would like (from your computer or the internet), I then pressed the "add comment" icon and leave your voice or caption to describe the picture or topic you are thinking of. It's that easy. I would truly recommend Voicethread for many people, and all people who are willing to try it. I hope you enjoy Voicethread as much as I did. :)bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-47818974374780657392009-12-14T12:57:00.000-08:002009-12-14T13:10:06.102-08:00Big Huge Labs<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs8rVccJFRqg4YfEi0exvklTWJS8rvxsQPvrUsvZYSxNjRwm7akwBCbmKSLcruZdrhXOpA5Ju0V4rnpSwr3DLnDPafGYgiC-wpM8r9vCRKvx8RwH2jb8rSPt_OnNbwpC1ETJUerfIoO2w/s1600-h/jigsaw03fc5ea77567e45a2459cdb976bcccfec73ffc23.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 229px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs8rVccJFRqg4YfEi0exvklTWJS8rvxsQPvrUsvZYSxNjRwm7akwBCbmKSLcruZdrhXOpA5Ju0V4rnpSwr3DLnDPafGYgiC-wpM8r9vCRKvx8RwH2jb8rSPt_OnNbwpC1ETJUerfIoO2w/s320/jigsaw03fc5ea77567e45a2459cdb976bcccfec73ffc23.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415200967705621522" border="0" /></a><a href="http://http://www.flickr.com/photos/shankarmenon/2368346202/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/shankarmenon/2368346202/</a><br /><br />This week I visited <a href="http://www.bighugelabs.com/">www.bighugelabs.com</a>.

I uploaded this picture above at Flickr, because it shows one of my favorite hobbies. Uploading pictures from Flickr is pretty fun and easy to do. First, I went onto Flickr.com and searched what topic I want (making sure it was ok for the picture to be on my blog) and then, when I found something I liked I and dragged it to the desktop. After that, I made a new post (this one) and pressed the add picture icon on the post draft, I clicked "browse" and found my Flickr Picture. It didn't take me long to do at all. I'd recommend Flickr for everyone!bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-55381254739553853772009-11-15T17:42:00.001-08:002009-11-15T17:57:42.159-08:00Making My Avatar<span style="color:#000000;">As you may see below, I have created an avatar. An avatar is a character that reflects you, without fully giving away who you are. Making my avatar was quite easy. I made avatar on manga.com. Manga is a website where you can create a character that you might or might not look like.<br />After I made my avatar, a dragged my creation to the desktop. When i was ready to upload my character, i went to my blog (logged in) and pressed the "customize" button, which is located in the upper right hand corner. I scrolled down to the "picture" icon, once done, I clicked the "browse" button, then I to the desktop file on the finder, then I scolled down till I found my avatar. then press "upload". And my character was on my blog. :D</span>bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161174385365090835.post-39526742923941379592009-11-12T13:08:00.000-08:002009-11-13T13:24:54.186-08:00Creativity<span style="font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> Drawing, painting, photography, dance, singing, and writing are all ways to be creative. Everyone can be creative! Believe it or not, the Internet can help people to be creative all the time! The Internet can help people voice there creativity in ways such as a blog. And being given the help of the Internet, voicing and showing your creativity can be a lot easier, like being able to see other peoples blogs, seeing what creative style they have, and discover that you might have something in common, or if you might discover other ways to be creative that you might like. I would think people, including me, would act differently if only our teachers were going to see our blogs, because, if only our teacher's were going to see it, i would think people would pay more attention to what the teacher was looking for, but if the whole world were able to see your art, you may be able to be more free, more "yourself". I think, today creativity is in everyone, and there is a creative style for every person.</span><br /></span>bu4everhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13642083235611395722noreply@blogger.com1
