Tech 2 Evaluation

AWW: A Web Whiteboard
Things I like:
1. Many colors and there are different pencil widths
2. You can directly TWEET, post to FACEBOOK, or post to REDDIT.
3. You can insert text into your drawing.

Things I don't like:
1. There is only pencil, a spray can and marker (or paint) should be added.
2. A bucket option should also be added, to fill in closed spaces. There should be more, different, pencil width sizes.
3.You should be able to insert images into your whiteboard drawing.
4. I would also suggest online synchronized drawing (with friends).

Ways I could use AWW:
1. To explain stuff to my friends when I've got a computer but not a pen.
2. Just for fun, to draw stuff.

Present.me
Things I like:
1. It is an innovative way of showing a PowerPoint and presenting it orally and visually at the same time.
2. You can upload your presentations so that other people can see them at different times.
3. There is a free monthly plan for people in which you can upload 3 presentations per month.

Things I don't like:
1. There is no language categorizing when exploring presentations so you might go into one and it is in Italian.
2. That present.me accepts presentations in which there is only a single slide; it really is boring.
3.That there are options to create a presentation with ONLY audio or ONLY slides, the purpose of the tool is lost.

Ways I could use present.me
1. To create school presentations so I don't have to present them in class, but there is a visual and oral explanation of it.
2. To explore and learn about different subjects with a person explaining different slides.
