 My experience with Twitter as a platform for sharing and discovering new information related to technology has been enlightening. I used to hate twitter because it was so politically charged by people who rarely knew what they were talking about. But since my twitter is only stuff related to education technology, and other interesting research that could be really critical to education and teaching philosophies.


My Web Design assignment using Weebly was surprisingly intuitive and easy, you literally drag and drop what you want to add to the web page! I was never frustrated when I was using Weebly everything worked seamlessly, I definitely can see myself using this platform to make future web sites for myself. As I was creating it I realized that there was nothing stopping me from actually have a digital classroom run in combination of an updated Weebly and Live streams on either Twitch or Youtube.


Diigo is also a neat tool to learn how to organize the massive amount of content you come across the web. You can annotate any web page by converting it to a PDF with Diigo annotate it and save your marked up, and highlighted version of the web-page to your Diigo account where you can save it in a folder that will let you conveniently sort it and make it easier to retrieve. It's also a useful tool to work collaboratively with a group of people, in one of my past classes we had to work together to write a research paper, if we had used Diigo we could have compiled our source, sharing them among ourselves instantly over the net and put key words on it so we would know why we were sharing it with each other.
