Favicon

Favicon is the icon right before your URL. You can go to other websites that let you generate favicon and use them as your own. We had difficultys trying to figur out why it wouldnt come up, but then it came up  on firefox.

Free study cards helper

This app is all about making notecards. Who doesn't need note cards in any class. They are a major help in study for any test or quiz you have. If I needed a quick study I would use this app because its quick and simple. This app would be used mostly in English and government.

Evernote

This apps basically a updated agenda on the Web. You can write your ideas and plans down, take notes, upload pictures and even more. This app was introduced to me by my English teacher but I never used it. Now that I've actually grown up a bit I think it would be a great app to use in my everyday life.

MyBigCampus

This app is basically the Facebook of school. Here you can be a student or a teacher. The teachers can put assignments and lesson on here or little odd ends that we might need for homework. Then the students can use that and also talk to teachers and fellow students. This is very useful when you have been gone for awhile and can use this at home or anywhere else. I use this app when I need to check up on my homework.

Hudl

This app is for any sports that you are in. On this app you upload a video of your performance and then you can go back and look at it at anytime, but you also can use this gadget to make a highlight film in case your interested in showing it to others and coaches. I used this app for football and to send out my highlight films.

Notability

This app is used for taking notes, hence the name. It is a very useful tool but it takes some time to get use to. You can highlight, write and type on this app which adds flexibility. I use this app in any class I'm in to take my notes and sometimes even do my homework!

CAPSULE: CAPTURE YOUR LIFE, ONE MOMENT AT A TIME

My second application is Capsule. This is a great app. It is used for making like an online photo album thats online. You can save all your pictures on here and then arrange them as you want. If you have ever been over run by all your photos that you have and need to have them in a safer or better place, then try this app! You can use this app for any of your journalism classes and any computer classes that you might need pictures for. It's easy access to get online and to use anywhere.

POWTOON-MAN FOR THE PRESENTATION

My first application is Powtoon. This application is all about making an presentation even more awesome. It brings your presentation to life, instead of having a boring presentation that no one wants to listen! I could use this in almost any class that i need a presentation for. You start off with your basic idea and then add your information like you normally do, then you just add awesome animations to do all your explaining for you.

App. vs. Web

The app has some pretty cool features on it. During the time I spent playing with it I realized that you can get a preview on here by touching an eye icon, also you can edit your post but at the same time edit your HTML. I also thought it was way easier to start this post then to do it on the web. Although these are all good, the app also has a down side. Everything is smaller on the app, which in turn makes it harder to read and work on. You also don't get to see your gadgets or get your links like on the web. Another problem with this app is that you cant see your stats, atleast from what i saw when i was flipping though pushing all the buttons i saw. Their is the problem of viewing the same thing, you don't get the same effect and view on this app that you get when your on the web. In all though the app does provide a quicker alternative to get the minimal things done on your blog, don't expect to do any major changes on your actual blog. If I was wanting to do some major changing to my background or see stats, or add anything other then a post and picture, then I would use the web. For quick updates and blog posts, or to see comments on my posts while I was out and about I would use the app, because it is a lot quicker in those few aspects. I believe both are user friendly because they both are pretty much self explanatory. Though I would say the app is more user friendly due to the fact that their aren't as many things that can be done that are very in depth except the changing of the HTML.
