Social Bookmarking Project Questions

1. We can also organize our computers using RSS Feeds, Wikis, and the Cloud.
2. E-mail can also be used if you want to send a message to a group of people rather than sharing a website where they would have to skim through the entire thing to find the desired information.
3. My favorite websites had to be the ones under the NBA Playoffs because basketball interests me the most.
4. My favorite blog posts were the ones where we had to describe our weekend and the technology postings.
5. My favorite RSS Feeds were the Rolling Stone website and the Technology website.

RSS Feeds

1. I selected those mostly because they all interested me. Even the ones under news and government interested me in some sort of way.
2. It was very easy to find the feeds. I just searched up key words on google reader and found many different feeds to choose from.
3. My favorite sites were probably the technology blog and the rolling stones website. I love music and technology so those interested me the most.
4. you can use RSS to find recent updates on work that your teachers have been posting.
5. It is likely that I will be using RSS in the future, in fact, i'm using it often right now. It helps me just have to visit one place to find information from many different places.

Android Powers Google Glass

Google is going to use its Android operating system for its Glass devices, Chief Executive Larry Page confirmed yesterday. "Obviously Glass runs on Android," Page said toward the end of the conference call reporting Google's strong first-quarter financial results. Fragmentophobes might freak out that Android is being stretched to yet another device: it's hard enough for programmers to keep up with the diversity in screen size, processor power, and operating system version. But Google has a separate Glass application programming interface (API) called Mirror, meaning that programmers won't simply be writing Android apps to tap into its abilities.

Homework

5 Main Points

1. Wiki's are websites that allow many people to collaborate and share ideas and are very easy to create.

2. When creating your wiki, it is important to set it to protected so that others can view it while only members of the wiki can edit it.

3. Wiki links bring you to a certain point within the wiki, while external links send you to a website outside of your wiki.

4. The discussion tab allows people to discuss content within the wiki without changing it.

5. The history tab allows people to know when the page was last edited and by whom it was last edited by.

Spring Break

During spring break, all I did was either hang out with my friends or stay home and relax. There was seriously nothing else to it. So, this is a really short post. Here is a funny picture.
