Integration of Blogger and Facebook

Facebook has the capability of being linked to blog sites through the use of what is referred to as a badge. A badge is created from your Facebook page then inserted into your blog as a widget. A blog can also be linked to Facebook to allow followers of your Facebook page to view the recent blog entries. The ability to link blogs and Facebook is a very important aspect in business which allows the collaboration between sites. You can also link your blog to Facebook by going to the share tab at the top of your blogger site and once the tab is opened you will see the list of choices. You then choose Facebook and that will open your Facebook profile so that you can title the link. The accompanying video also shows a way to accomplish the linking of a blog to Facebook.

Integration of Blogger and Twitter

Twitter, being one of the fastest growing social networking and micro-blogging services available today, has the capability of being linked to blog sites through the entries that are made on each tweet. The accompanying video discusses the ability that Twitter has to allow linking of sites through the use of tweets, which are the 140 characters or less that are referred to as tweets. A blog can also be linked to Twitter to allow followers of a blog to view the recent tweets that are being followed. The url of the site is added to the tweet as part of the text of the tweet. If the url is too large, it can be reduced in size to allow the objective to be completed by the use of a site such as TinyURL which reduces the size of a link to a manageable but unique size for the site url. The ability to link blogs and twitter is a very important aspect in business which allows the collaboration between sites.

Presentation for Mobile International Festival

Well, Now that I have played around with Google Presentations for a while, I have put together a slide presentation which is accessible through my Google Doc's stored documents. I plan to attempt to use this presentation to display what I have learned from Google Presentations to the rest of the Electronic Media class at The University of Mobile. It seems to work well, but would work better for myself if I had a faster download and upload speed from my internet provider. I just have the basic, but am considering an upgrade. I created the presentation in PowerPoint and uploaded it to the Google Doc's site. It didn't seem to want to work at first, but could have been high traffic or my internet speed may have had some affect. For what ever reason it seems to have uploaded into Google Doc's O.K. The only thing that I had to do was re-arrange some of the wording on the slides which it allowed me to do.
