DESCRIPTION
Tech Journal #1 Diigo. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation
Citation preview
TECH JOURNAL #1DIIGO
Diigo is probably one of the most pointless, tedious things to use ever. How the website is formatted is
confusing, how to use it “properly” up to the standards of the personal project is dumb, the whole site is un-
necessary. The cite is used to put bookmarks on what you have used for your research, when your are already doing
that in your works cited. Why I have to use this website when I am just going to use easy bib to do the exact same
thing is a mystery. All in all, this is defiantly my least favorite technology to use for this project, it is dumb,
pointless, confusing, and last but not least, tedious. I would defiantly NOT recommend this technology.
TECH JOURNAL #2WEEBLY
Weebly was actually a very interesting and somewhat fun technology. It was very cool to make your
own website and customize it to your liking. Weebly was very easy to understand and operate, unlike
Diigo which was a complete pain and very complex and not so easy to understand. There was only two
problems that I had with Weebly, first off, the website wouldn’t load and link properly to my Wiki which
made me a little frustrated but I got over it. Secondly, there weren’t that many options to use and do when
creating the Weebly. I am not sure that a I had limited options because of the fact that I had the free
version or that the website just didn’t have that many options on what to do. However, as a whole,
Weebly was actually a beneficial and good technology. I would recommend this technology.
TECH JOURNAL #3PBWORKS/WIKI
The PBworks/wiki is what the entire project is made on. It is easy to use, you can do a
lot of things on it to make the wiki look more appealing and attractive, makes good for organization,
it is an all around good technology. It doesn’t seem to be a waste of time, it is also free, however it is
somewhat limited to some creativity and confusing when you try to incorporate other various
technologies with it such as a scan but over all it is good. I would recommend this to others if
someone were to ask me.
TECH JOURNAL #4EASYBIB
Easybib is a online cite that allows you to keep track of all your works cited. The
website is great, it will do most of the citing work for you so you don’t have to spend more time
trying to figure out how to cite something. You will have to put in some work yourself of course like
a url if need be or when citing pictures, but for the most part is great and will put it in MLA7 format
if you so choose. I would defiantly recommend this technology.
TECH JOURNAL #5PODCAST
I used Podcast as technology for a journal. However this is a audio journal involving
the iPad. This technology allows you to speak into the iPad and say what you want to say and then
allow others to hear it, like an audio recording. This is cool to put a new spin on the journals, however
it seems kind of useless and a waste of time. It is also hard to hear the voice and figure out what is
being said and his tricky to upload. I would not recommend this technology.
TECH JOURNAL #6WORDPRESS
I used WordPress as technology for a journal. However this was a big waste of time.
The cite was confusing to use, to embed it was hard, it was rather dumb, over all it wasn’t‘ that
impressive. I would have rather done a Google doc and just get it done with rather than fussing
around with WordPress. Doing the Google doc would be much more time saving and defiantly not as
complicated and stupid. Overall, I would not recommend this technology.
TECH JOURNAL #7PREZI
I used Prezi as technology for a journal and show and tell for the class. It was actually
pretty cool. The beginning was confusing having to connect everything and got frustrating at times
however at the end it was a really cool outcome. I'm not sure if would use it for something small like
a Journal because it actually does take a good bit of time however for something a bit bigger it would
be great. I would recommend this technology to others.
TECH JOURNAL #8GOOGLE DOCS
I used Google Docs as technology for many journals. This was incredibly helpful in
the making of journals. It is super easy to use, probably the easiest one I've used except for what I
used in Tech Journal #10. Google Docs if very resourceful, it is easy to embed in various cites. It is
just a great thing to use, it like a portable Microsoft Word. I would defiantly recommend this to
anyone.
TECH JOURNAL #9GLOGSTER
I used Glogster as technology for a journal. It was really point less. You could create
some virtual poster however it was confusing to use, embedding it was really confusing, it lagged
really bad making it stupid and pointless as trying to present something nice. If it cant load everything
in time and use everything you create when you want it to then there is really no point to it. I would
not recommend this technology to others.
TECH JOURNAL #10THE CAMERA
That’s right, the camera. I obviously used this for a picture or two and it was the
easiest thing ever. Just click a button, take the pic, take out the SD card, put it in the computer, done,
you have a picture on the computer waiting to be uploaded to something. I would recommend this
because everyone needs a camera!
