- 2. Favorite Technologies Google Translate This would be a great application for me if I ever travel out of the country. It stood out to me because I can now translate anything from English to any other language. I think this is an incredibly useful app. And I plan to use it when traveling to translate just about anything! It is a nice tool to use even if you are in the country but need to translate for someone. This Application would come in handy when dining out in a foreign country, to say, order your meal. And can be used for many other things as well.
- 3. Favorite Technologies Blogger Blogging with Blogger was a interesting new feature I enjoyed. Using Blogger I could post pictures of myself and family, RSS feeds for the latest news and headlines, and of course, update my Blog! I plan to continue to use Blogger to just play around with new features that I can add to my own personal Blog. The thing that stood out the most with this was the different applications you can add to Blogger. That, and it is something I find more interesting than just using Facebook.
- 4. Favorite Technologies Wolfram Alpha Wolfram Alpha was of great interest to me, when discovering this site it just blew me away what you an ask on Wolfram Alpha and it gives you a factual answer, to anything! It was just an awesome new site to learn about. I really enjoyed looking up my name, and also seeing how bad my vision really is. It stood out to me the most of everything else in this class, because it is something I have never seen before. I had no idea that there was a site like this out there! I will be using this site in the future if I have any questions about anything! I have turned several others on to this site as well, and they also love it! I wish I would have known of this site when I needed help in all of my math courses, but I guess you discover new things in each course you pursue in college. I will highly recommend this site to anyone! It was a really fun assignment!
- 5. Favorite Technologies Flickr Flickr was very interesting to me because I love taking pictures, and love to share them as well! This site is new to me, but I have continued to play around with it and upload my photos and place tags on my pictures. It will be useful to me in the future as a new way to share my pictures of my daughter (which is in the thousands) with others. I have introduced quite a few others to this site! I like this site a lot better than Instagram!
- 6. Favorite Technologies Linkedin I particularly loved learning about this site. It stands out to me as a great way to search for a new career once I graduate. I absolutely plan on using this site to post my personal profile, which will include my resume. This is a great way for people to see all the potential I have and what I can offer their company. This is new to me and an awesome , more professional way of social networking. Also seeing as how I am not particularly fond of social networking, this would have to be one of the only social networking sites that I would actually want to use and be a part of.
- 7. Least Favorite Technologies Delicious Delicious was one of my least favorites because I am not to fond of Social Networking. So the idea of social bookmarking did not interest me to much. It also seemed a little difficult to understand exactly how to bookmark the sites and simply did not stand out to me. I do like to Blog but, I would not want to share my Blog content on Social media sites. I do not plan on using this in the future.
- 8. Least Favorite Technologies Twitter Twitter, just like the other popular social networking sites are, well, just not my thing. I do not like the idea of posting my every move, or reading others posts and lastly I have no interest in following anyone on the site. Again, I am just not into the whole Twitter and Facebook age. I do enjoy the Web for its many other sites but, I just like communicating with others the old fashioned way, in person. It just seems like these sites get just a little too much hype, if that makes any sense to anyone else besides me!
- 9. Least Favorite Technologies Sumopaint I did not like this site because it for one did not stand out to me. Also I would not have any interest in editing my pictures with all the features Sumopaint had. I always keep my pictures the way they are, I would not want to upload any of my current pictures to Sumopaint to edit them. This particular site did not appeal to me at all. Sure it would be cool to others but this site was just simply not my thing. It stood out to me because I do not like the idea of modifying my personal photos through Sumopaint.
- 10. Least Favorite Technologies Google Docs Google docs was also not a favorite of mine. It was just a little confusing when we were completing the assignment. I felt like it was just a difficult thing to do to add on to someone else's story. It just did not interest me. I did not like the fact of sharing my documents with others, nor the fact that they could possibly use my document. They may or may not use it for themselves, but you never know. I just did not like using Google docs, I felt as though it was making my documents public, to well, who knows? Again, that just takes me back to my whole keeping my things private deal. I just do not like sharing anything over the internet, unless it has to do with my college activities.
- 11. Least Favorite Technologies Alltop Alltop was just kind of a boring site to me. Yeah I do like keeping up on the latest news but I like to gather it all on my own time. Alltop put all my most interestingpodcasts, and news feeds all in one place. I did not like the fact that it decides what I think is important to see. It was not my favorite assignment. Nor did I like the way in which it automatically organized my favorite feeds. Maybe I want to choose my own?
