Web Browsing

For the web exploration, I did Pickpimp.com and Canvas.com. Both are photo editing websites. Pickpimp.com is an editor focused more on colors, rotation, cropping, effects, and boarders than Canvas, which has mainly text, stamps, and overlapping images. I liked pickpimp more, mostly because of the variety of overlays, boarders, effects, and more. I'll most likely use PickPimp in the future, but not Canvas, because I feel Canvas had a very limited choice selection.

Flixtime, Animioto, and Voice Thread Evaluation

VoiceThread, Animioto, and FlixTime were all at least a little enjoyable to use, but my favorite -by far- was Animioto.

I liked Animioto the most because of its vast choice of theme, whereas FlixTime had only about six, and VoiceThread didn't provide themes. One thing I didn't like about Animioto was its awkward chocies of music. None of the music seemed -to me- to fit anything I'd make a video for.

FlixTime was fun, regardless of the small theme pick. I liked the finished project very much, and it was easy to maneuver around. I didn't like its "cover page". I didn't like having to choose something to identify my project by.

VoiceThread is more business-like, and I didn't really enjoy using it. It was plain and most likely most useful in a confrence or meeting for your work. One thing I did like was the way more than one person can comment on something, in more than one way, though.

All in all, Animioto was my favorite movie-maker to work with.

ToonDoo

ToonDoo, while fun to use, isn't something I'd use regularly, I think. For a project, or for outside school activities, I didn't find using ToonDoo exciting or fabulous. All of the different tools turn me upside down. I think I'd like to introduce it to my younger cousins, however, because I think it would be an exciting thing for them to use.

Photo Edits

I enjoyed mostly every photo editing website we went to. They were all different in some way- a few of them reminded me of the Photobucket editer- and my absolute favorite was BeFunky.

BeFunky offered a lot of photo editing options, and even had certain categories for certain edits. This was my favorite, and I think I'll be using this often for school and entertainment.

Prezi Presentations

I found Prezi easy to work with and fun to use. I enjoyed the path and transitions you could set for yourself, and especially the way it auto-righted itself instead of making you do it. Prezi was incredibly useful, and I hope to use it again for a school project, or maybe even a resumé.

SlideRocket vs Powerpoint

I enjoyed using SlideRocket more than I enjoy using PowerPoint. SlideRocket is an easy way to make a quick presentation that you can modify in unlimited personal ways, while powerpoint is a harder, more comlicated way to create things to your prefrence.

Glogster

Glogster... was, in my opinion, fun to use. At times it could be confusing, and most of the time, the only thing I had trouble with was adjusting the text to my preferred size, color, and font, while making sure it was readable. All in all, Glogster was helpful, and I enjoyed using it.
