Betterme!!!!

Betterme.com is the site I am going to describe.

The purpose of this site it to anonymous give feedback, get feedbacks, and ask question. This site allows you to anonymously talk to people and be completely honest without them without having to say it face to face. and you dont have to worry about them looking for you and trying to kill you, because they dont know who you are.

Yes, i would consider this a WEB 2.0 for the same reasons I think the other sites are WEB 2.0 sites, your able to share info with people.

I wouldn't use this site because i think these sites are a cowardice way for people to talk badly about people. And i find it kind of mean to say stuff about people on a website. If you are truely someones friend you would say it to them as a friend.TTYL(love always, Starbucks Junkie)

R.e.m.e.m.b.e.r. .t.h.e. .M.i.l.k.

ZOHO

The site I will be talking about is zoho.com

The purpose of this site is to allow you to do alot of business on the internet. So, if you dont have certain applications on your computer that you might need for business and personal purposes you could go to zoho.com. It has an web-based email service, online word processor, spreadsheets, note taker, etc.

Yes its a WEB 2.0 because you're able to control info. going on and off the site, you can control what people see on your site.

I would recommend this at my job, but for personal usage I dont think i would use this site to be completely honest. TTYL(Love always, Starbucks Junkie)

EYEOS!!!!

http://www.eyeos.com/ is the website I will be talking about.

All you need inorder to work eyeos is a web browser. The purpose of the site, is to go to eyeos and then have all its applications including Office and PIM ones. for educational usage you can have it so teachers and students have a personal yet collaborative desktop. The students are able to talk among themselves in and outside of school.

Yes, I believe this is a WEB 2.0, for the same reason I believe the other sites are WEB 2.0. You have the ability to share receive information.

No i dont believe I would use this site, because I probably wouldnt have even heard of it, if it weren't for this class.TTYL(love always, Starbucks Junkie)

WHOLE BUNCH OF SITES!!!!

The website I m going to write about is homepuzz.com



This site is a combination of five sites, the sites are twitter facebook, buzz, youtube, and home puzz. The purpose of this site is to allow you to control all your sites from this one website, so basically you would have to got to five seperate sites you dcan be on just that one. It allows you to update all your information, allows you to see other people information that they updated as well.

Yes its a WEB 2.0, because you able to control all the info being put up, and youre able to share information.

I would definetly use this site, if i had all those applications.TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)

RATE YOUR PAPER!!!!

The website is : http://www.paperrater.com/.

The purpose of this site is to help students improve their righting. It is mainly used in schools and universities. They also have a vocabulary builder on the paperrater site, it helps students to learn the proper usage of a sophisticated word. Although Paperrater is a good site, they had to overcome some challenges such as computational linguistic design and development, handling transliteration variation, plagiarism detection .

Technically, this is a WEB 2.0 because although I can't control whats on the site; I can control what I upload onto the site to get rated. I"m not sure if that technically quaifies as a WEB 2.0 but I am going to guess and say that it is a WEB 2.0.

In terms of me using the site now, I would probably would use the site. I believe that if I were younger i would have used the site more, just because my writing skills weren't all that great back then. TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)

GAMES!!!!

This site is called www.carrotsticks.com .

The purpose of this site is to help kids, or even just anyone with the mathematics. It helps them with addition subtraction, multiplication and division. It helps them get better with math. It also allows the kids to challenge other "kids" (sometimes highschoolers playing for the fun of it)

I don't believe this is a WEB 2.0 because you cant share information with others.

If I were an adult and I had kids, I would use this site to help them learn math more quickly and in a fun fashion. TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)

BOOK!!!!

The site I am referring to is: kobobooks.com.



This site is mainly for selling books online. You by this things called ebooks, and you can download them onto your ipod. And therefore you don't have to carry around heavy books, you can just read read them off your ipod. The only disadvantage to this is if youre ipod crashes then all your books are gone.


I consider this a WEB 2.0 just like I considered Flippid.com, because everyone can have their own and they can share their own information. Its not like a site that you can only look at and not comment on or anything.



I'm not much of a reader so I probably wouldnt use this myself but I would recommend this site to other people just because I have alot of friends who like to read. and i believe they would really enjoy this site. TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)

BUY AND SELL STUFF!!!!

The link to this site is: Flippid.com.

The purpose of this site is kinda like ebay you can buy and sell stuff online. you can get rid of your unwanted stuff and you can also take other people unwanted stuff, pretty awesome!!!! I have alot of unwanted stuff I could probably sell on this site.

This would be considered a WEB 2.0 because other people can get their own accounts, and add information onto their site, other people can comment on tbeir sites as well. As oppose to the Fatburger web site you can't add information or make your own site.

In regards to me using this site, I believe that knowing me personally I would make a site, use it once; then forget my password and never use it again. So I probabaly wouldn't use this WEB 2.0.

TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)

FAT BURGER!!!!

The link to fatburger: http://www.fatburgr.com/

The purpose of this site is to show you many restaurants, and the foods they offer; and it shows you the nutrition of everything offered at that restaurant. They show you how many calories, how much fat carbs and fiber are in each item.

I don't believe that fatburgr is a WEB 2.0 because not everyone can have one and you cant add on information if you arent the one who made the site. I think it has some features of a WEB 2.0, like the people you made the site can share information with other people, but techniquely i don't believe this is a WEB 2.0. i could be wrong but in my opinion its not a web 2.0.

If i had to say whether or not I would use this site, I would say yes because I am trying to be more aware of what I am putting in my body. Becuase when you eat reckless the pounds can sneak up on you, but their hard to get rid of.

WEEKEND!!!!

Hey so my name is Starbucks(not literally). I go to a christian academy, which I love. I am kinda a Starbucks junkie gotta have that stuff or I will die(literally). I am not a huge fan of Dunkin Donuts but occasionally I will go there if I am low on cash. I also love sushi, and cooking. I think that I may go to a culinary school once I graduate from highschool. My favorite class of the day is info systems. I am not short but i am not tall either, kinda average height.

I had to snow days this past week which was awesome, so i hung out with a couple of friends from school. It was pretty awesome if i might say so myself. I must have went to starbucks about 100 times during those two days. Luckily, my starbucks wasnt closed. I always order either a cinnamon dolce latte iced or hot, but since today was a snow day I decided to be a little different and I order a Mocha frap which I havent had in the longest time ever.

I also went to a party over my snow break, the party itself was okay....but hanging out with a few people after the party was better in my opinion. I made food and ate alot of food over the break(not unusual though; im always eating....kinda why im fat), but anyway that was pretty much my weekend.....TTYL (love always, Starbucks Junkie)
