Week11

__**My Twitter Research Project**__ I wrote a summary for my research on "Twitter" in [|my blog]. I noticed that Josh is also researching on [|Twitter]. I also volunteer to participate in his class-twitting experiment tomorrow.

__**SlideShare**__ I found this useful PowerPoint sharing utility, [|SlideShare] this week. It allows users to present and share their slides without any compatibility issues. I did a test run of the tool with my EDUC 482 presentation on the Canadian author, [|Douglas Coupland].

Unfortunately, the tool has two major issues in my opinion. First of all, all presentations need to go through a long conversion time after the upload. It can take a while to create slides from bigger files or multiple files. Secondly, multimedia content, transition and animation are lost after the conversion. One can only add multimedia content by adding a separate audio track (MP3) or including YouTube videos.

__**Class Blogs**__ I made some comments on Wikipedia on [|Curtis' blog] and Josh's Twitter project idea on [|his blog] ,and responded to [|Carol's blog] on the "assessment".

I really need to track of all of my activities in this portfolio. I am sure I will forget about these comments by next week. My forgetfulness makes me wonder whether I will need to log everything with twitter? (But I don't want to commit the sin of over-tweeting...)
