Pro Profs Games

My classmates and I made several games on the ProProfs website, several games people made were Hangman, Picture Puzzle, and Crossword.  Making these games were fairly easy, you just go to the website and click create a game and boom there it is you can make a game in the push of a button.  The most common game I saw made was Hangman.  I think everyone in my class that made a game did a fairly good job on making them unique.


 Here is a link to the website

Sumo Paint is a good photo editing app for amateurs. It's easy and simple.

picmoneky is a more advanced photo editor, it is a little more difficult though.

Pixlr is a lot like sumo paint, but way more difficult to understand.

Google Drive

Google Drive has many features, for example you can make documents, forms, drawings, presentations, and spreadsheets, all for one nice price FREE!  I will be explaining what you can do in each one of these features, and what the pro's and con's of them are.


Document-  Document is a lot like Pages or Microsoft Word,  you can pretty much do anything that Pages and Word can do, but Pages and Word do have more options than Document.







 Form- Form is a new feature, what you do with form is make questions, it's basically like making a quiz right from Google.







Presentation-  Presentation is similar to Power Point and Keynote, but Presentation has its limits and cannot do as much as Power Point.






Drawing- Drawing is another new feature. You can use this to make logos, ect.  Its somewhat like Paint on the Microsoft computers.

Spreadsheet-  Spreadsheet is a very useful feature, for making rosters, charts, ect.






I think Google has potential in these features.  I think that if Google could improve some of these to where they are similar to the Microsoft and Apple versions Google could catch up to the other businesses.

The Feedjit App is the perfect app for your website.  It is perfect for your website because it tracks who all has visited your website or blog on what time and what day they visited your web, that way you can see if your website is getting popular or if you need to work on more things for your website to make it more popular.

Favicon

I just recently found out about a new website called Favicon.com, what you can do is make your own internet icon to go with your blog, website, ect. here is a picture of my url with my new favicon that ive made.

TurboTax 2012 App

Scanner Pro App

The Scanner Pro app is a great app for work.  You can scan all your files and receipts, ect. and turn them into PDF's so you can email them to whoever needs to get that information. instead of having to use a fax machine or mailing them the files.

Pages App

Pages is one of the best typing app there is out there, you can make resumes, letters, ect. anywhere with this app.  You could also take notes on it at work or school, its especially good for teachers making assignments.

Notability App

The notability app is perfect for taking notes at school, and work.  It is a fast way to take notes anywhere.

Keynote App

The keynote app is a very useful school app. It is a better version of the windows version known as Powerpoint.  But that is just my opinion. I'd prefer keynote over  powerpoint any day.  Keynote is faster, it is good for presentations at school, work or anywhere.

Blogger App V.S. Blogger web

I think that the Blogger app and Blogger Web are very different. The web version has more stuff and its faster.
The Blogger App is helpful when if you don't have a computer, you can just use your mobile device to add posts and check your blog.
Personally I like the Blogger web version more than the Blogger App version.
The web version has more widgets and gadgets you can use, it also has more options you can do than the app version.
