Web 2.0 Diigo Teaching Tool

My Tool that I will be presenting is the Video Editing Software Loopster. Loopster is a new way to edit videos fast and easy and export/upload to anysite you want. There is no software necessary to download as well. Personally I can use it for any video projects I have it for in any class possible, for example Ms.Millar has video projects often and this software is perfect because it is so easy to use. I would edit any of my class videos or project in the future with this app. This app is perfect for any student that is not familiar with video editing software, like many teens today.

SolePower: Charge Your Phone by Walking

My tech article this week is on the brand new SolePower invention. This invention is a new innovative way to charge your phone by walking. Inside the sole is a motor that spins with every step that creates energy and releases it into your phone that is connected to the insole of your sneaker of sandal or whatever you are wearing. The inventors still have no plans on when it will release or how much it will cost, but plenty of people want this invention as it seems very useful to our generation.

After reading this I will definitely think a thrid time before I post or retweet anything in the near future, social media is meant to get people connected and have fun, not to hate anyone or stay away from anyone, that's why I am going to follow this article so no one will think I am a different person behind a monitor than in real life.
