www.picnik.com - Show


What I like about the feature show of www.picnik.com is you can upload directly to your show. You can use this your show on Myspace, Facebook, etc,. In addition, you can rearrage your picture show and do auto-fill. You can also customize it by choosing from various photo Transition Types. Set the Background Color to coordinate with your photos. If you’ll be using the Film Strip style, choose a Highlight Color to feature the image being viewed which shows thumbnails of your photos as they go by. Finally, don’t forget to adjust the Speed, in seconds, for a longer, more leisurely Show, or a snappier one.

What I dislike about www.picnik.com is its limited. It's FREE but you can only download 5 pictures at a time. If you want to upload more, then you can upgrade to premium. Furthermore, when you first signed-up in this site, it takes time to load. Also, the features are good but very limited. You have to purchase to get good upgrades.

From scale 1-10: (5)

Flickr...Hooray!!!

What I did today, Feb. 2, 2010 is create an account with "Flickr." In Flickr we uploaded pictures of ourselves and families. Also, on this site we worked on Flickr Badge, which helped me create codes to copy and paste it into my blog site. This codes are all my pictures that I upload into Flickr. On the other hand, the way I would use flickr.com for my class is to use this site to upload pictures of my students doing an activities, working in groups, playing sports, etc,. My students will have the opportunity to view the pictures of the events on this site. Therefore, I found this site very interesting and enjoying. This site will also benefit for my class and students.

Gotta try ZOHO to believe it...



1. How easy/difficult was the project you worked on?
I find this site easy to use and work-on. This site will be helpful for teachers and students to utilize.

2. How do you think your students would benefit from your project?
My students will benefit from my project by introducing other software and programs that they can use when they can't access any Microsoft Office software.


3. Rate the software Zoho on a scale of 1-10 and why?
I would rate Zoho 10 out of 10 because this site is very helpful for teachers and students use. Also, because it's FREE and basic.
