Learning about google presentations is quite interesting. It is quite similar to power point but a little easier I would say. I am still trying to figure the jist of it out but I can understand why it would be useful. I think that as a teacher or an administrator it would be a good way to collaborate with other teachers to create a presentation or slide show to post on the website for students and parents to see. It is a fun and entertaining way to pass information on such as the classroom rules or information about recent field trips or events in the classroom.
The introduction to web 2.0 video was interesting. I have to say though when I first saw the video I was amazed at how many of the applications I am currently using. I would like to think of myself as an up to date person on technology but I really just recently started using these applications. Also, most of the applications are similar and I don't know how I got sucked into using all of them, twitter, blogging, face book, my space, websites, web zines etc.. It really does take up a lot of time trying to keep them all updated and reading everyone else's to see what is going on...sometimes I wish I wasn't so interested in all of it. Yet, it is what brings me enjoyment through out the day so I guess it is OK.
