Thing #16

    I chose to use Netvibes for my homepage. The theme for my dashboard was social networks. I chose this because besides schoolwork, social networking is really all I do on the computer. It has all your networking sites right there in one place, making it very easy to stay connected. I probably won't make it my permanent homepage simply because when I do log on to do homework, I will be tempted to visit my social networking sites if they are the first thing I see.
    The online calendar can be useful for staying organized and remembering important events. With all your important dates and times all in one place, it is easier to stay on task and keep track of things in your busy schedule. With an online calendar, you can easily make changes to any events when needed. I would personally use the calendar to remember due dates for school and my work schedule. The online to-do lists were also helpful. The "Remember the milk" site was great because you could sync it with your online calendar. They have apps for iPads, iPhones, Androids, and you can even use it with Siri. I would definitely recommend the Remember the Milk app for anyone with a busy schedule.
