Is it really the end...

Well I have to say that I have discovered many exciting things in this program. My favourites were Flikr, Gizmoz, Image Generators and You Tube. I think it is fair to say that I got to do a lot of image manipulation. I could spend ages at those sites. I love that kind of stuff. My Library Thing was fun to set up. I often go back there and add new titles. Not so interested in the social bookmarking. However these things are useful to know. I am really pleased I got time to work on a blog. I would definitely choose to do the next program. Thanks to Robyn for the opportunity. It has been so worth my time.

See you later.

TQL Learning 2.0 Edna Group

Hi again folks,
Well I created a Face book account and an Edna account. I commented on the 23 things topic left by Tanya and created a new discussion about You Tube. I found leaving a reply and starting a discussion very easy. I would like to know what other people thought about You Tube, hence my new discussion post. This is a really good way to discuss specific things about the Learning 2.0 experience. Now that I am nearly finished I can reflect on what I have enjoyed the most.

Podcasting

I found an interesting podcasting site called Rachel's Reviews
Just somebody reviewing children's books. A cute one. Another way to access book reviews which is handy. You could review books forever. A great tool. I did not add this one to bloglines, however I added a Dr. Who podcast feed as I thoroughly enjoy this program.

Well I could not get Odeo to work for me so I did it the hard way with Zamzar. (not that hard). The most annoying thing was that Odeo would have been easy if it had worked, but as it was this optional exercise was frustrating. I was happy that I got there in the end. I really had nothing to 'pod' about so I read a little story from one of my daughters books. See what you think

Youtube and others

I just couldn't resist adding this advertisement I found on You Tube. I think they ran it in their Superbowl one year. I have always remembered it and found it finally. It is about cat herding.



I do like this music video from the Killers. I was able to access You Tube so here it is.


I suppose from a library perspective I could use this site to record and upload video snippets into the online student flexilearn centre orientation. A few small video clips in the orientation would probably hold student interest more. Anyway I love that you can find all the latest music videos. I will be revisiting these video sites for sure. I downloaded one from DailyMotion however, when I revisited my blog it didn't want to play it so I went to Yahoo and got this. Have a listen to the one I chose. I think Avril Lavigne is awesome.

Web 2.0 Tools - Picture 2 Life

Hi,

After much browsing through the award winning sites I chose Picture2Life I do like working with images which is why I really enjoyed Flickr and Gizmoz. This site made it easy for me to upload my pictures and edit them. I created collages and animations with my photos. As you can see I have inserted one of the collages. Probably not super easy to use, I quickly got used to navigating around. Just needed a bit of time. A great site. I have also listed the link to the site if you want to have a go.
