Assignment # 10
2. The stats kind of surpirsed me, i was a little shocked on how high the numbers reached. But at the same time i wasnt that surpirsed, because i and other friends are always watching and sending videos.
3.
I chose this video because it was about the national championships that were held this year in MN. I am a figure skater so this was very exciting for me that nationals were held in MN this year.
4. I can search and have searched for videos on google, yahoo, and facebook.
5. It makes youtube a web 2.0 application because you can use this for classes and assignments if you need certain video or information for that certain class or assignment.

Assignment #9
Scholarpedia, allows you to do the same but, the original author is a scholar and when you edit it a scholar or a peer editor looks over it so nothing is fake on there. I have used wikki before but not scholarpedia, in the future i will use scholarpedia.
2. I think its intresting how anyone can just edit that information. I think its hard to trust.
3. I would use scholarpedia over wikkipedia for research. I would use it for a paper or a presentation on someone because you can get a lot of information that is accurate on scholarpedia right there on their website!
Assignment #8
2. One main good thing about this tool is that you can share and publish your work right there. It would be very helpful in college or in a work situation when you are doing a group project. You can upload your work automatically.
3.One way they are using it for a proofing a paper. They can upload the document and someone else can proof read it and another person can too so your paper is correct.
4. I have not used another tool before
5. I could use this tool for school, i could upload a group project and everyone in the group can edit and add what they want for their part of the project.
**i talked to you about it... they website wouldnt load for me... i just got it to load up. thanks

Assignment # 4
2. I could use this tool for classes because it would make it easier to jump from site to site. Or when doing a research project or something i have the source or website on hand.
3. Some of the benefits of this site is that it helps me and other people easily jump from site to site and also keep track of each website. You can tag them so when you are trying to find a site you can easily look up what you are looking for. For example lets say i am doing a project on womens rights, and i already booked marked some websites in my social bookmarking page and now i am coming back to it and i look up womens rights, cuz that is what i tagged them under and they will pop right up. Its easier then scrolling through them all!
