Online A Reflection

This year in online a I learned a lot. One of the most important things I have learned is Technology is important.  Five years ago I played on an original Xbox, used a flip phone without a camera, and used a dinosaur size computer.  Today I use an iMac with a six inch bigger screen that weighs about two pounds, an iPhone 4 and an Xbox 360 that can do basically whatever I want.  I the future I predict computers and phones will be transparent and game consoles will somehow put you in a game.  I use computers everyday for school work I use my computer for finding answers for all classes and my phone for finding definitions for English and Spanish class. I thing podcast can be very helpful with lots of things especially when learning.  My favorite tool was blogs because a blog is like having a million reviews about one thing. 

Wrestling Podcast

This wrestling podcast was an episode in a series of wrestling casts.  They had a wrestling fan “special” guest and they talked about wrestling.  Though they aren’t talking about real wrestling like I like but its fun to listen to them talk about off topic topics, like the NHL lockout.  I personally did’t really learn anything from this podcast but id o think people could learn from them.  People listen to podcasts simply because they are too lazy to read  and its easier.  This podcast seemed to be very opinion based and not very resourceful.

            Face book makes a woman lie about her age.  A woman from Grosse Pointe Shores, MI tried to post her age on her status of 104.  Every time she put in her birthdate as 1908 it changed to 1928.  So the woman has been 99 years old for two years now.  Facebook apologizes and just says it was a glitch in the system.

Voki vs. Blabberize

Voki, I thought was much easier to use than Blabberize.  Voki gave you options to change your avatar, that is one reason I think it was better.  Voki could be used in other classes to do presentations.  I think if that was an option i would do a project with Voki.
