1/30/17 Social Bookmarking CE



In this article, the author argues that social bookmarking is beneficial to marketing strategies. By utilizing social bookmarking, marketers can direct users to popularize their website and target a specific audience. This article changed my perspective on social bookmarking because it can be used for other operations besides personal use. Because of this, social bookmarking is more than just a way of organization, it is also a popular method to direct large groups of people. However, I still would not use a new social bookmarking site. I'd rather have Google as my homepage.

1/25- Introduction to Social Bookmarking

1/25- Introduction to Social Bookmarking

Prompt: What is Social Bookmarking? What is the purpose of Social Bookmarking? What Social Bookmarking tools do you use?  How did you learn about or choose to use the social bookmarking tools that you use?  What Social Bookmarking tools would you suggest to others? (If needed: feel free to spend a little time on the Internet before you complete this post)

Social bookmarking is a way to organize a user's most frequently visited websites through editing or tagging different sites or individuals. Social bookmarking allows people to access their normal sites faster. I chose websites for Symbaloo that I would visit more often at school. I added Dropbox and the Blue Valley webpage so I could access class documents easily. I would suggest adding your email, any social media, and maybe news pages.

1/17/17 - "PREZI Reflection"

 1/17/17 - "PREZI Reflection"

Presentation: http://prezi.com/ic-5t9acn4pp/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy 

Prompt: Now that you have created a presentation using PREZI, take a moment to compare & contrast your experience compared to the more traditional presentation tool of Power Point.

This was the first time I've ever used Prezi, and I think PowerPoint was easier to use. I was more familiar with it, but it's also dependable. Some people had problems saving since the program is supposed to do that automatically. I may use Prezi if I were presenting to a more artistic, younger audience. The movement makes it more entertaining, but also more informal. Depending on the project, I may use Prezi again if it is a short, creative presentation. For major projects, I prefer the more traditional PowerPoint.
