Yesterday was the second day of presentations. It seemed like the general theme of other interfaces are picture editing. Although that’s cool, I don’t really see how they alone can be used for a project, namely Project 3 for this class. One of the presenters did Codepen which I really did not understand. The coolest…

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 […]

The tool that interested me the most today was Canva. It was appealing because I often want to create documents for flyers or something and I do not know how to work with InDesign well. I am interested in it because it looks easy to use and it looks like a simplified version of InDesign — […]

Interface Presentation: Pixlr
by Zack • • Comments Off on Interface Presentation: Pixlr
Today there were another set of presentations. I unfortunately was not in class today, but I did go on each person’s presentation and read/watch what their interface was about. I was able to take a little bit longer time to analyze each one and compare them and see which I liked better. So after going […]

I really liked Canva. It was actually my top pick for my presentation, and after seeing all of the features, I’m definitely considering using it for Project 3. I like that it allows the user to do so many different things. A lot of the applications we’ve seen are good at one thing, but Canva […]

Today in class we listened to a few more interface interrogation presentations. After learning about over a dozen websites that involve various forms of communication, I was the most inspired by Celsea’s presentation on Cowbird. I think that combining social media and story sharing in a online forum that inspires all of humanity is motivating. […]
Cowbird

“A global public library of human experiences” That description of cowbird is what initially made me interested in the site. I really like using Storify, and this seems like a different, yet similar form of the same type of tool. From what I can tell, Storify looks to be more news oriented and Cowbird is […]

I really liked two of the tools today– Storyteller and Drafts. As a writer, these tools offered help in editing (Drafts) and publishing/copyrights (Storyteller). These two tools together could help me edit a particular text I’m working on in Drafts and then publish it in Storyteller so I’ll be getting audience feedback on a copyrighted […]
