Glogs

Before taking this course I had never heard of a Glog.  Blogs, yes, but never a Glog.  Many people like to use glogs as an alternative to power-point presentations.  Glogs enable people to be creative and utilize technology to put their own spin on materials for a presentation.  Picture files, audio files, video files, and text are examples of all the things that can be placed in a glog.  Editing is simple for users, and files can come from anywhere online.  Once the glog is created, it may be shared in numerous ways such as Facebook and Twitter.

Glogster is an easy site to navigate when creating a glog.  I found through our class project that creating a glog was simple.  It allowed me to create a page on a topic of my choice utilizing different aspects of technology.  Rather than having to click through numerous slides in a power-point presentation, I can now present a glog with all the information needing to be presented along with videos, audio files, etc.  I highly recommend the use of a glog.  Power-point presentations, while informative, can be staid or dull at times.  Glogs allow for creativity that is sure to grab and hold the attention of those listening.
