I’ve talked a lot about how I like to use join.me to share my screen or help students by watching what they are doing. One of my students and I were sharing our screens with each other today. This is what happens when I looked at his screen looking at my screen on join.me :
Factual.com is a data-as-a-service provider. Here’s a mashup I made that takes their data about diabetes drug prices and plots it on a map. Only simple HTML coding knowledge required.
Ever since the day when my flash drive failed, I’ve become a big Dropbox fan. Dropbox is a cloud storage application that automatically synchronizes files on your computer to the cloud, and other computers on which you’ve installed the Dropbox application. Files inyour My Dropbox folder under My Documents are automatically synchronized. It just works.
There’s also a phone app so you can look at your files on your smart phone. Dropbox starts you off with 2G of storage, and you can earn more for free by promoting Dropbox on Facebook, Twitter, and with your friends.
I read this article on Lifehacker describing ways to get more free space on Dropbox. I knew that if you refer a friend who installs Dropbox, you and your friend each get 250 MB of additional storage space for free. I thought I was good, using Dropbox for about two years now, I managed to accumulate 8.25 GB of storage. I referred a new friend yesterday, and received confirmation of my increase in storage space.
