Linkedin

The Purpose of Linkedin is to manage your business in for information and networking to other people on Linkedin. It is usefulness is in sharing you information with people around the world with having to go to the locations. Not knowing the much about business and seeing that they already have Invitations or a away for sending your information specifically, I cannot think of anything that would help them.

For this Table I used thing that come to mind when I use things like Twitter,Facebook, etc. Facebook and Twitter have most of items on table however they do them in different ways. Twitter has more links and uploading to one comment instead of to an accounts. Twitter is more for small sentences and comments but at a fast pace, while Facebook is more for sharing a lot at once. Twitch is completely different, Twitch is for sharing gaming experiences live.

Game|Life Podcast: Evil Within, Smash Bros. Have Killer Sales


http://www.wired.com/2014/11/gamelife-podcast-episode-133/

I am guessing this one does not work it starts by telling you what it is about. The top selling games in October but then it leads to RSS and Itunes to subscribe but they did not work for me. I used Google Chrome and nothing said anything was not compatible. I was excited for this one but it did not work. maybe it will work for someone else give it a try.

Podcast Alley VS Podcast.COM

As someone who does not go to podcast websites very often but know podcast doing this comparison was based mostly on feel. I got all of my reviews podcast off of Podcast Alley due to not liking how Podcast.com looks

So lets start with podcast.com. It looks like a pop-up website you get for websites looking for clicks. nothing on the front page brings you to the podcast on this page it is really weird it just has links to other website for making podcast. there is nothing here.

Podcast Alley looks like a legit website busy but it is busy with the podcast that is has to show you on this website.There is not much to this one but it is better than what it could have been. It works and it is not weird to go to.

The Non-Fiction Writers podcast: Previewing Oklahoma-Texas Tech with Aaron Dickens of RedRaiderSports.com

This one is definitely my favorite (Sarcasm), it starts out with advertisement and then you see what is presumably the podcast. Nope another advertisement it only looks like the podcast and after the advertisements there is a "click here for the actual podcast.

This podcast was about Sooner's and Texas Tech Football. I normally am not fan of just hearing about football I want to see football. This was surprisingly boring I could not finish more than five minutes. They talked about quarterbacks one that was on both teams but may not play, this was AWFUL but try it for yourself if you like podcast and Sooner's Football you may like it.

Hilarious parody of Serial podcast turns to phone book for clues

http://www.cnet.com/news/hilarious-parody-of-serial-podcast-turns-to-phone-book-for-clues/

Hello,

This Podcast had reading with it which I liked. The Podcast I assume was the video and the reading was like this a review.

The person doing the podcast I really did not like there style of doing the podcast I assume it is satire. When the video started there was something about doing a murder podcast and from there got really jumbled (Presumably on purpose). It got very annoying very fast to the point where It seems like a completely bad joke  but at the same time I kept listening because is was not terrible. Then it ended and I was left wondering what was the point and how was a lot of this stuff legal if it was not fake.

Flickr Review

              Using Flickr is very easy, but unless you are a huge fan of taking pictures and sharing them or a Photographer it may not be that useful for you. For me Flickr was easy to log into and make an account but there is an option to connect to Yahoo which is nice because in my option Flickr is more of an Add-on then its own thing. Flickr is a website for sharing photos which is fine but that’s kind of all it is.It is really easy to use and it has a pretty smooth design but it is not something for everyone. Adding Tags is also very easy and it is pretty fast you just click add tag and it lets you add a lot without have to click again.All in All it is not a bad website just the opposite I think it is really good but it is good for certain people more than others.

If you look at my images the only tag they have in common would be web 2.0 other than all 3 have something different
Delicious  Review


              Delicious.com is a website for saving and sharing bookmarks. It has a very simple look to it and you have to make an account to save and share your bookmarks. There is an option for installing a button for the website. The buttons are for going to the website and also a generate tags button for whatever site your on at the time. The website seems very good for having all of your bookmarks in one place and organized. However you can do something similar with your web browser without making an account for a website. Google Chrome has a bookmark option it may not be as organized as delicious.com but you can organize with folders. I can see this being helpful for coworkers or for students as an easier way to help each other with research but other than that I do not see that much of a reason to use it recreationally. Also that the name goes from Del.icio.us. To Delicious is something they should change. There are many website that make small changes to names to infect people’s computer and that this website name changes when it loads can scare people away.

Advantages - Organized, sharing, easy to use and good for groups.

Disadvantages - unfamiliar website,web browsers already have bookmarks, possible trolls sharing spyware websites, account making.
