Web tool/app/website review

I chose two apps to review that are very helpful in an educational and effectively organized way.

The first one is Stixy:

Stixy is an organization website tool.  It is kind of like sybaloo in a way except its a lot more versatile.  You are able to put picture, presentations, etc on your page and move them around.  I think it would be quite helpful in the every day office or school situation.



The second one is Grammar Up:

Grammar Up is an grammar education app.  I think that it would be probably pretty important to  have this app if you were working on a paper and were worried about you grammar so you need some guidance.  Overall this app gets pretty good reviews and is effective in classroom settings.

Photo Editing-Fotoflexer

I enjoyed Fotoflexer a little bit, but over all thought that they could have made the choices for how to edit a little more interesting. I did however like how my photo came out.

Photo Editing-Pixlr.com

I enjoyed Pixlr.com photo editing because it was pretty simple but you can get really good results out of your editing. Heres my picture example that I edited. There's not that much difference, But I did sharpen the tree in the background and blurred it a little while brightening the flowers so it would draw attention towards the dog.

Creating Games

I enjoyed creating the games on proprofs.  I thought that creating the games on there that other people could enjoy was pretty cool. Also, I enjoyed playing my classmates games. I created a hangman game about school subjects and a word search about music and the arts.

Avatars

<a target="_blank" href="http://www.osoq.com/"><img src="http://characterspic.s3.amazonaws.com/OSOQ130502170Y.gif" border=0 width="192" height="192" alt="Caricature"></a>

*OSOQ avatar creator (link above)*

To me the OSOQ avatar creator was too cartoonish. I thought that the head was too big for the baby looking body but its always kinda fun to play dress up I guess even when you're a teenager.  I thought that the site was pretty well put together but it wasn't really my favorite.

http://www.doppleme.com/create/

*DoppelMe avatar creator (link above)*

The DoppelMe avatar creator was kind of cool but i think that it was kind of a bland avatar maker.  I think that they should put some more modern looking hairstyles and clothing items.  But over all I thought that the avatar creator was probably one of the best ones that was listed.

www.southparkstudios.com/avatar

*South Park Studio avatar creator (link above)*

The South Park studio avatar creator was probably my favorite one. Although it is a cartoon I think that the avatars looked more realistic than on the other sites.  I liked the site.

Wordle V.S. Tagxedo

Wordle-

Wordle is kind of cool if your wanting to make kind of a cool word advertising project or a vocab list for english or something. However I kind of thought the scheme and color options of Wordle were a little bland.  Other than that I thought that Wordle was a pretty fun little activity.
(above is a screen shot example of the wordle that I made)

Tagxedo-

I think that Tagxedo was a really interesting and fun little word poster creator.  I really like the fact that you could choose what shape the words that you typed in would appear in.  And there was a lot more color choices for what your background and your words would appear in.  I thought that the colors were a lot more appealing.  Over all Tagxedo was my favorite word generator site.
