Podcasting

In these few weeks, we learnt about podcast.  Podcast means a audio folder but is not a radio but you can download it on to MP3 and others.......  
This is some step that you may cover in the future:

1. To find a podcast it can be any thing For example: annoying orange I used someone's blog to put the podcast to a link, this is the link that I used:http://zhdrocks.blogspot.com/ Click on the 'Link' to see more.

2.Then you will see a very small sign click on it  it looks like a orange square with white  a half a circle and a small white dot in it and it called the RSS feed button.

3.Next copy the feed link by doing command 'c' after clicking it then there will be a link this was my link:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/AnnoyingOrange.

4.Go to google to search for google reader then click on this link:http://www.google.com/reader/view/?utm_campaign=en&utm_source=en-ha-ww-ww-bk&utm_medium=ha&utm_term=google+reader#overview-page

5. At the top left there is a thing called 'add a Subscription' click on it then paste the link that you just copy by doing command 'v', for example:http://feeds.feedburner.com/AnnoyingOrange.

6.After when you finished click on the 'add' button and magic comes, listen to the podcast and enjoyed it, you can keep on add lots and lots of podcast as many as you want.

Hope these in formation helped you try and follow the steps enjoy!

Case Studies

In these days lot of people creates blogs or go on blogs.  Blog has good things about it but it also got bad things about it, here are some example that we can avoid form it:

-Landon has been missed class time, been subjected and his damages in excess of $100,000,” the an action said.


Hope these points help to BE MORE CARFUL of the blog lots of people got in trouble in lot of these cases! 

Last summary project

In this Project I have learnt a lot of things.  I created a blog because we can share content with an audience. They could include of text, video, audio, links and more like works and assessments.  Inside your  blog you will see different kinds of things such as: putting label's and posting all sorts of stuff like: a welcome post.


Here are some tips that can help you in a blog.  There are good things and bad things here are some of them good things about blogs!
what things are the good things in the blogs:
-People can see what you have done.
-Can share it to other for checking work.
-You can comment on each others blogs.
-It will help me better with the technical stuff.
There are also bad things about blogs:
-If you put full name or anything that is personal information because people will find out who you are.
-Don't write anything that is informal.
These are the bad and good things about the blog I hope it is helpful for you!

In a blog there will be post and sidebar:
Sidebar-keeps thing forever.
Post area-where you post your work.


I also learnt a lot of things such as the means of some words:
Embed - the steps of an object from one site into another
Widget - the stuff being inserted  

Putting images on the posts was also one of the thing that I learnt here are the steps of how you can put images in your own blog, first find the image that you wanted to put on the post, second drag the image on to the desktop, next on the top it said 'Link' next to the 'Link' there is a picture click on that.  Then click on the 'choose file' on the top middle, after then click on the image an click 'choose' at last click the 'add selected' finally the image that you wanted will show up.


Sometime I also put links in my post to make people know what I am talking about and it makes it more interesting by doing that you need to have a subject on what you are talking about for example: the subject I am doing is 'Spongebob' this is the website for 'spongebob' to let people learn more about it: http://spongebob.nick-asia.com/en/.
If you wanted to do something like the link here is what you do:
1. Click on the 'LINK' on the top middle.
2. Then it said 'To what URL should this link go?'
3.put the website there and click on 'OK'
4. Then the link will show up like this: http://spongebob.nick-asia.com/en/

If any of my friends or families wanted to open a blog I will help them.  After finishing this blog I felt very excited and fun because in this activity we worked together very well by helping each others and I am excited because I can't wait until what is our next project!

5 Facts About Google

Our teacher told us to write 5 facts about google by using this website: http://www.google.com/help/basics.html to find more information.  These are my 5 facts about google searching:
-Everything that you type matters because id you type 'Sandwiches' it maybe shows 'sand' and 'which'.  Which as in which one is mine?
-Keep every thing you type simply.
-Putting double quotes('''') around the word or words that you wanted to search like this:['it will be much more easier.
-If you wanted to find definitions of words you can add a 'Define:' to find the definition easier.
-Add a - to less down the information like this: 'chocolate milk'-ice-cream. 


These are all of the 5 facts about google hope these things help you to search faster.  

My Secret Diary

Wordle

We needed to embed wordle to our blog it was very hard at first but if you learn more.  Wordle it's quite cool because if your class teacher told you to do a reflection you can do a wordle it's easy and quite but don't always create a wordle sometimes you also needed to do some writing.

Boy recording

Few weeks ago we record our own voice and post it on the blog because we could listen to our voice to see if it was loud and clear.  We went somewhere around the school to record, I record 4 or 5 of them to see which one was the best then post it.

Miranda Cosgrove - About You Now (Live on Today Show)

WELCOME!

Welcome to my blog.  My name is Angel, I am a secondary student.  Our ICT teacher Mr.Parker asked us to create a Blog.  He said we can use any title you want.  So I called my blog as Angel's school blog.  I enjoyed this activity because I never try to make a blog.  What I will post on this blog is my homework especially English, photos/picture (pictures of home works), video and others.  What I won't put on my blog is privacy information and pictures of yourself In this activity I learnt how to create a blog, how to use MacBook much more confidently!

The Great Mouse Plot

          

I am reading one of Roald Dahl's books "Boy".  This story is about a mean , evil lady (Mrs. Pratchett) who sold candies.  Inside the candy shop there were lots of different types of candies such as Gobstopper and Liquorice Bootlaces.  Roald Dahl and his friends loved candies, almost everyday they went to the candy shop, even though Mrs.Pratchett was very mean.  One day Roald Dahl found a dead mouse.My teacher asked me What will you do to that dead mouse.

If I found a dead mouse, I would put it on the dirty floor and I would tell the inspector to come and check the candy shop's floor.  When the inspector came, I would scream as loud as I could.  I would say 'OH MY GOD THERE IS A DEAD MOUSE!'  Then when the inspector checked it, they would fire Mrs.Pratchett.  After a few days they should be hiring a new candy shop keeper.  At last, Roald Dahl would be very happy!
