For
the first part of this thing I wanted to talk about Flipboard, although I have
it on my Ipad I don’t look at it a lot but I do like it and the way that it is
designed. From a professional point of
view it is not useful but like TED if you were involved in research or you are
a librarian it could be a good tool for learning about new technologies.
For
the second part I looked at Storybird and Extranormal, I looked at both because
you could not explore Storybird to much without signing up but I do think that
it is a great idea and would be a great tool for teachers. As mention in my last post I have seen
Extranormal before and even though there speech patterns are not perfect I found
them good to watch and the technology behind it will get better over time.
