2nd Emerging Technology

1. DIGITAL PHOTO is the technology that I am going to explore with you today.
2.SUMMARY- I have always loved pictures but, when I find out that there were sites that I could go to and upload my pictures so all of my friends could be it. I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT. SLIDE.com is the digial photo site that I am using. There are many digital photo sites that you can use such picasa, flikr, and slide. I am just going to get into how to use slide today. It can be useful in the class by showing the students picture of their abcs and them being able to tell you the letter as it comes up. It is also useful because the older kids can upload picture to express themselves in the classroom.
3. PERSONAL TESTIMONY-Slide is very user friendly, I hate using technology and I thought that is why self explaintory and that is why good at letting you know what to do and how to do it. I did not even have to learn how to use the slide show. It takes you step by step, which is very nice.
4. HOW IT WORKS- Somewhere on this page I have made my own slide.com slideshow for you guys to look at.
FIRST- You go to slide.com
SECOND- Go to the upload here button
THIRD- Go into a file that you want a photo from ( you can upload up to 50 photos at one time and it only takes about 5 minutes to download all of the completely)
FORTH- go to the middle of the page (where your pictures can be edited) and edit the captions to say whatever you want. If you do not want any caption there is a button on the top right of the edit picture section that says clear my captions and just click that button.
FIFTH- pick a background out like hearts or glitter. They have 20 backgrounds to choose from

5. TIPS- Do not put any picture on here that you would not want others to see and do not picture naughty pictures on slide.com
