Google Chrome is an easy to use browser that was made by Google.'cough cough'(google chrome) Anyways, this browser is a lot like other browsers but offers different things like every other browsers do to make them somewhat different. The appearance of the browser is noticeable different, extensions and apps are different but somewhat the same, and it has a nice size selection for extensions. I decided to find myself a cool them and I found this!!
This is a theme that I enjoy because of its cool properties. I also found a cool extension that is a Last.fm Scrobbler. Here it is!!:

The first website that I explored was Slimber. Click here to explore yourself: Slimber This website lets you draw whatever you want and the website records the drawing of your picture, when you post it; it actually posts the video of your drawing and lets other people watch it. Another cool feature is that you can watch other peoples drawings on the videos that are posted after they have finished, which is fun to look and watch.
The second and last website I wish to talk about is Flame Painter! This awesome and fun to use website click here for the link: Flame Painter So this website lets you make your own pictures of flames of which you may change the color of the flames. This feature is cool if you want to make an awesome background for your computer. It goes from the range of White all the way to Pink.

Today I was also assigned the task of telling you about Google Voice. Google Voice is a program that you can use to setup a phone number that can connect your home phone, your mobile phone, and even a work phone. When someone tries to call you over Google Voice it will call all of the phones that you have setup for it to call, this is helpful especially when it is for business and it would help out a lot if you have a business that you want to create and/or build. Here is an example of it:
Today I was assigned the task of creating a blog about my "Flag Counter" that I put on my blog! On my Flag Counter I have done a very bad job at trying to get more flags from different countries! I only have one flag and that is obviously from the United States of America. The cool thing is, is that I have over 470 page views so far and I've only been in this class for a month now, makes me feel awesome. Haha. (: So anyways! My Flag Counter isn't very good so far, so I'll keep you guys updated if I get someone from a different country to look at my blog! Enjoy.

On friday last week I was assigned to explore and/or use the program Google Hangouts. Google Hangouts is a fun and easy to use program that is a lot like the program Skype. Google Hangouts is a program for chatting and/or video calling people for conferences, just talking, and etc., This program is really fun to use if you want to call friends and/or family. To use Google Handouts all you have to do is have a gmail account and log-in to use it. Once you have a gmail account you just go to the "Google+" area of google, and add friends to your account through there. Once you have done this you can type and have a conversation with them and/or talk to them through video call and/or voice call. You could use this program for meetings or conferences at work, you could use this program for hanging out with friends while you play games, if you're bored and other things. To use the video call you have to download a plug-in otherwise it will not work for some random unknown reason. Enjoy the Blog posts from hence-forth.

I am doing this blog post over these three things that I explored earlier: Google Bookmarks, Google Earth, and last but not least Google Books.
Google Bookmarks is a type of bookmark holder on the google website that lets you add your own bookmarks just like bookmarks on your browser. This program is not as simple as just adding your own bookmarks to your browser but it lets you access your bookmarks anywhere and at anytime.
Google Earth is a program/website that we have all used at least once in our lives. This program lets you look at the world from the view of a satellite, you can zoom in, you can search places that you might want to go to, etc., This program also lets you get directions straight from the satellite depending on where you're at.
Google Books is a separate part of bogle that shows you old books that are free to read on your own spare time. This program lets you access books that aren't available to you when you are on the go, it lets you read most of the books for free, and lets you use them whenever and wherever you want. All you have to do to get to this program is to go to the google site *Google.com* and then click the button with nine squares in it and then just click more and then click "even more from google" and it will take you to a screen that shows you all the apps that google contains and lets you use free of charge (most of them anyway).

Today for class I was assigned the task to use a site/program called symbaloo. This site and or program is a type of bookmarking site that you can use as your homepage and it will show all the sites that you have put on there as a bookmark. This website and or tool is a convenient tool to use for school, because of how once you put a bookmark for a site it never gets deleted unless you manually delete it from your "webmix." This program lets you make your own webmix on which you can customize to your liking in order to make it to your likings. Some benefits for using this bookmarking site is that when you are at school and you don't have enough time to do you work, all you have to do is go to this site and bookmark the important websites that you need. Another benefit is that you can use this anywhere, as long as you don't forget your login info; which is convenient for people who travel a lot.

Voki:
My current assignment is to use the Voki program for my blog to welcome people to it. This program uses voices that you can choose from to put on this "avatar" to make it sound cool and/or funny. The voices were pre-recorded for your own daily basis work for any type of site and/or blog. An avatar for Voki is where you can choose a pre-made picture of someone or something that will talk and/or move to the voices that you assign it to use.
You can record your own voice for the avatar to use on the site, which is totally safe and fun to use when your bored. The Voki program also has an extra part to the program called "Voki Classroom" which adds many different options to the program for you to use; I have no idea if you have to pay for this extra add-on but I think it might just be worth the cost if you will use it in class. If you do record your voice for the avatar the maximum you can record is up to 90 seconds, which is handy when you have to do assignments for different classes at school or many other things.
If you wish to go to this site and create your own Voki click on this link: http://www.voki.com/create.php
This site is reliable and fun to use and I recommend this program highly. This program is convenient for people doing assignments for school and other things. My overall thought about this program is that it is useful but I think that it still needs work.

How often I am on the internet/blog.
Well, the problem with the internet for me is that, I would rather not be on the internet other than talk to friends; so I am not always on unless I get comments on my blog. So if you ever want or need to talk to me, just comment on one of my posts on my blog, and I will answer as soon as I can. ( Check out my cool picture. Hahahaha. (:
