wordle

This blog post is over the website  wordle.  Wordle is a easy to work website, where you can create collages of words.  You just type in a text box the words you want in your collage, and if you want a word to be larger than the other words, you can just type it multiple times. You can even just copy and paste the url of your blog or website into a different box, and it will put all the most frequently used words that are on your blog or website. Once your collage is created you can change the style of it.  You can change the colors of your words, the size of your words, and the direction they are facing; (vertical or horizontal) or even have most of them horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. Wordle is a fun, easy  to use website that is free.

This gadget shows where and when people viewed your blog. so it will show you what country, even all the way up to what city they are visiting from.

Drawing tools

Drawing tools are fun and easy to use because you can draw or create anything you want and save it. Some of my favorite Drawing sites are Draw Isand, Crayolas drawing canvas, and Shiddonni. I drew a ladybug and i am very proud of it.

Google Voice

Google voice is an easy free way to call people off your phone.  You can call from your computer to another computer, or from your computer to a telephone.  It is convenient for people in other countries or if you are traveling out of the country because you can call people anywhere in the world free of charge. I would recommend Google voice to anyone who wants to call people for free.

Poll Everywhere

Poll Everywhere is an easy to use site that you can open a poll to let people vote on a subject.  People can vote using their phones by sending a text message to a number and saying what they want to vote for.  Poll everywhere could be used for voting for anything you wanted to make a poll about.  I would recommend using poll everywhere for controversial topics in class, or even out of class.
