Screen cast 2

To create this screencast I used screenr.com. It was pretty easy to use and similar to screencast-o-matic. I think Screencast-o-matic was more user friendly though because if you messed up, then you could back up the recording and fix it. With Screenr you had to restart. I liked screencast-o-matic better, and would rather use that.

Screencast post

A screen cast is a video of a person doing a step by step example of something taking place on a computer screen. I liked creating a screen cast because it's simple to do, and it's an easier way to help people online. I disliked doing it because if you mess up then you need to start over sometimes. If someone is not sure how to do something they can find a screencast and just follow what the video says and does. This is most useful to people who are new to technology, or are trying to learn new things.

Google Docs vs. Windows Live

Google Docs is easy to access because people use their iGoogle homepage for a lot of different things. However, Windows Live is very familiar, because most people are taught to use Microsoft Windows applications. Both of them can save easily, use different types of documents, and share with others. With Google Docs, you don't have a limit on the amount of free storage space you can use, but Windows Live only gives you 7GB of free storage.

Retailer Brookstone this year will start selling a portable fuel cell able to charge smartphones a dozen times before running out. It's a big step forward in portable fuel cell technology. This new fuel cell will charge any device that has a USB cable. They will only cost a few dollars. People can buy them online, through Brookstone catalogs, or at stores, and they can be recycled through municipal recycling programs. Lilliputian's fuel cell will be able to fully charge an iPhone 4 between 10 and 14 times with one cartridge. That could last up to a couple weeks for some people. They can also be carried on airplanes.
