Out of the presentations, I’d would have to choose Prezi as seeming the most helpful with Storify coming as a close second. The advantages of having an application that can really mix up the presentation archetype would be too good to pass up, and despite the learning curve with using it I think the pay […]

10/15 Applications Review
by Matt Elliott • • Comments Off on 10/15 Applications Review
The big winner from today’s applications has to be Draft. Had I known such an application existed my freshmen year of college, I would have spent a lot of money on it. I don’t know how much I intend to use it for Project 3 but I can see this application being immensely helpful for […]

10/12 Applications Review
by Matt Elliott • • Comments Off on 10/12 Applications Review
With my own application, I don’t see much use in the near and present future but I’ll revisit the idea of using it once I’ve graduated from school. The application that I found most interesting was the PicMonkey app. The user friendly interface appealed to me because the last time I knew how to use […]

Meme of the Week
by Matt Elliott • • Comments Off on Meme of the Week
I have to say my favorite meme would be the carnist meme simply because the other ones I came across were familiar to me already.

I’d looked at some of the others and decided against them because, frankly, while they seemed useful to some people they didn’t have much potential for practical use in my own work. This application allows for the daily spew off thoughts […]

What I Did: I added a page with recommended music videos. I reformatted the titles of my posts and messed about with the arrangements and headers of the posts. I removed and rearranged some of my widgets. I changed the header and cropped it. Why I did It: I wanted to add an aural and […]
September 10th Summary
by Matt Elliott • • Comments Off on September 10th Summary
Today I edited the about me section and added a contact form, in addition to messing about with the color palette at the recommendations of two of my classmates. I added in a photo of myself and streamlined my sidebars so that there would be less extraneous information cluttering the page. I also gave […]
