Thing 11 ~ Widgets



One guess for why I created the question I did...
I thought it was amusing how the voki kept following the mouse with her eyes. I tried to make my own but was unable to access the choices that would make it look more like me. I thought it was possible to make one like we did for the avatars, but I wasn't able to figure out how. When I use a Voki for school related initiatives, I want it to be advertisement free. I wonder if I should sign up now.

Was Polldaddy on Time’s 2009 list? If not, it should be. I may even try to add it to my Netvibes page and monitor responses from there.

Here are a few additional thoughts.
  • How do I add the Google b-day reminder to Netvibes?
  • Widgetbox…nah
  • Is PBS NewsHour Extra too mature for my students?

  1. I like the question that you pose in your widget. They have great potential for quick data collection. If we continue to offer 23 Things, I may borrow this idea to see just how long people are spending on the program.

  2. I hope the others are not taking as long with each as I am!!! This PD is SOOOOO valuable, but I definitely underestimated how long it would take and how it would impact the plans I made for the summer.
