Technology is important because it allows us to communicate with people all around the world. It allows us to share things with other people and sell things without selling it to them in person.Technology has changed over the last five years by improving with people coming out with new things like hospital equipment, i Pads, smart phones, and other things. I think technology will change in the next five years by people improving the things they have created now to do more things like smart phones will be able to recognize you by your voice or by physically seeing you.
The technology I use for schoolwork is my cell phone, iPod, calculator, and computer. technology I use for personal use is my cell phone to text and e-mail friends so I can talk to them without being there.
Some of these tools I will use in the future by creating spreadsheets and documents using Google Docs. as a quick and easy way to share it with friends. I will also use some of them to communicate and share things with other people. I think online apps would be the most practical for lifelong learning because it allows you to do everything right on one sight and be able to share it. The tools I think I will never use again out of High School is Blogs, Wikis, Digital Storytelling, Digital Portfolio, and Screen casting. The one I liked creating the most was my Digital Portfolio on Weebly. My least favorite was the Career Exploration tool.

Screencast 2 on www.screenbird.com
Website: www.screenbird.com
Two comparisons of screencastomatic and screenbird.com are they both give you the option to control your computer and navigate as you are recording. They also allow you to copy the embed code and pause and go when needed. Both websites where very user friendly and allowed you to navigate easily. I like screencastomatic better because as you were navigating it showed a yellow circle around what you were on making it easier for the user to copy what was being said and done in the video.
Screen cast Blog
A screen cast is a digital recording of the computer screen output similar to video screen capture which contains sound/voice recording. I like being able to guide through the steps just like I was doing it without showing it to someone like the way you could got click on things while we were recording. I dint have any dislikes about it. This could be helpful to me because if I forget how to navigate to a website or how to create something I can look back at this and follow my directions. I think this is most helpful to people who are maybe deaf they can follow the screen to see where to go and helpful to new internet users.
