Emergent Technology Part 1
Hey Guys,
So I used Roxio PhotoShow for the very first time. This is a really cool website.
Basically, this website was designed to make sharing photos more enjoyable. It was also designed to make sharing photos easier than perhaps creating a scrapbook. Scrap booking is fun; however, it can take a lot of time, money, and materials to make a really cool looking photo book. Photoshow greatly simplifies this process. It also gives people the option to make a DVD of their photo slide show. Also, Photoshow allows many different types of people to share photos. For example, I don't think that many guys would be into scrap booking. But, they would be into using this website.
I learned about this technology from my instructor. She gave the class many options to choose from for this first assignment. I chose this option because I had never used this product before. I found the website extremely user-friendly and easy to navigate. I had no problems at all when I was uploading my pictures, choosing a layout for the slide show, and choosing other cool features. I think that anybody who takes photos with a camera can benefit from using this technology. I found it extremely useful. And as a paid member on the website, there are many more options to choose from. For example, members can choose from hundreds of layouts, they can put in their own music, and they can also add in many more pictures to their slide shows.
As far as tips and suggestions are concerned, my best advice is to have fun and experiment with the website's technology. I also would suggest becoming a paid member. I am considering this option for myself. Using this website has encouraged me to get back into photography.

Nouri's First Blog Post
Hey Readers,
Today, I am blogging for the very first time! This is a very exciting experience for me.
Today, I am blogging for the very first time! This is a very exciting experience for me.
For those of you who do not know me, my full name is Nouri Mahon McLucas. I am a sophomore at IUPUI. I am majoring in Elementary Education and minoring Business. In my free time, I enjoy listening to all kinds of music, reading good books and magazines, watching new movies, and hanging with friends and family. I also have two work-study jobs. One of my jobs is at the Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA). At the IMA, I work as a Visitor Assistant (VA). The other job is located in the IU School of Education. I work for a professor. The main reason I created this blog is because I am in a class titled W200 Using Computers in Education. So far it is a really cool class. I'm doing technological stuff that I more than likely would not do if I were not in this class.
Tips/ Suggestions
Creating this blog was super easy. I clicked on the link that is located in the Modules tab. I followed the instructions and created a blog domain. It is really easy. Just follow the directions, have fun, and be original. :)
