Some great things are happening with the Edublogs pilot. We can now see great communities breaking out.
One particular Administrator of these communities has made a quick little video to help their users.
What else are you doing to help develop your community of users?
University of Washington’s Information School Librarians take their cues from Lady Gaga and produce this interesting video clip.
Flipshare experience on a PC
A auto graphic comes up for flipShare, suggesting it be installed. I do so by using the exe to install. Then computer needs a reboot.
Videos on the camera automatically pop up when application is launched and device is plugged in. Software seems easy to use with some very basic editing tools (movie creator).
Exports simply and easily to Movie Clip format (playable in most media players).
The program (FlipShare) doesn’t appear to have any editing tools for editing the actual clips. However it does have a ‘Movie’ function, which allows the user to string clips together to make a movie then export, or burn to DVD (with some simple DVD authoring options).
Creating my own channel.
Add my details… the email it was meant to send me with the details of my channel never arrived.
But I do like the instant sharing options!
Google has done an overhaul on their Google docs. In my private life as a student I find Google Docs really helpful to work collaboratively on projects.
What kinds of social media do you consume? How much do you consume it?
I found this TED talk very inspiring. You can find more inspirational speakers here.
At the moment I don’t have a dock for my iPhone, while it is not essential that I have one, I still want one! I have come across some really geeky ones, sleek ones and multifunctional ones.
I just found this one and had to share it.
This one was made entirely from cutlery which is pretty cool, I found it here.
Last year we tried this one in the office, which was not only a holder but a more functional dock charger, speaker and light. Never again.
The product was faulty, we end up sending it back. When they tested similar models and other units they also found them to be faulty. The speakers buzzed at all volumes of sound and there was some red goo inside the light bulb bracket. Suggestion – try it out before you leave the shop!
So for all the iPhone users which docks do you use? Or what ones have you seen that work well?
