Greetings from a Mentos

That Desiree is a mess. lol. i showed her my America's group presentation on google docs when I came home and she really was like blown away. SO funny story..I was showing her the google docs and she just got the craziest idea to call me Mentos like the candy mint. Get it mentor, mentos. Anywho, excuse the randomness..I will definitely recommend this technology to my friends and use them for my other classes. We hardly ever use anything more than blackboard anyways and that doesn't have any cool features other than showing us our grades. That's for the birds..anyways i have to be up early early in the morning so I'm signing off. G'nite!

cool Vid.. check it out

visit this site and watch this...http://vimeo.com/7408834

iGoogle!

I just found that I can blog from my igoogle page so this is definitely something else I'll be teaching my friend. this would be so cool for a teacher to use this feature to interact with their students or have them keep a blog about an assignment or project. Hopefully the teacher-mentor things gets off the ground earlier in semesters to come...for now I'll teach my friend all of my findings during this project.

Fall 2009 semester

this semester has been so interesting. It's been my best semester academically, so yay for me. I've also taken more interesting courses this time around. My world 203 class introduced me to usig technologies to keep in touch that most people don't think about or even know exists. I took on this project in the class to teach someone else how to use the online sites and pages. I as assigned two different teachers for the project which turned out to be a complete FAIL. So I turned to my friend and fellow B & B resident to teach her. I think it's kind of funny that I'm teaching her stuff that I just learned was out there a couple weeks before.
