Tech Tip: Sidebar

I added a new HTML/javascript text box to my blog, and I think it's really neat!
I like that I can add whatever I want there, and I can also move it around how I please.  Maybe you will consider the same.

Until next time!

Tech Tip: Blog Profile

I did not end up making any changes to my profile, but it is nice to know where all the changes are at if I decide to once the class is over.  I have always been hyper-aware of my name and cyber presence, because I hope to have a great job one day.  In having that great job, I don't ever want a stupid myspace picture or idiotic tags of me to be what comes up when my name is searched.  I have gone as far as to delete accounts that my name showed up with when googled (like youtube playlists and pinterest pins).  I want as little of me on the internet as possible, and this class is a huge branch out for me.

Tech Tip: Weather Widget

The weather widget is something I have wanted for a while!  I have seen it on a few other student pages, and now I have one too!

You can get your own at this link.

Thanks for reading!

Tech Tip: Embedded YouTube

I never realized how simple it is to put a YouTube video right where you want it in Blogger.  I will have to start adding more videos to my posts!

Tech Tip Poster

The text is from an unknown author.  This is one of my favorite quotes (which I also posted in my Introduction).  I really like how easy this site was to use, and I am sure i will be using it again.

Tech Top: Reverse Image Search

This was a great tech tip!  I have never reverse searched an image.  This might be ignorance though, because I knew it was possible I just never tried to find out how.  This will be a great tool for when I enjoy an image but it is too small.
My Larger Image of Buddha!!!

The picture is of Buddha.  I can't find more information on it, as all sources led somewhere completely different.

Google Timer Tech Top

I currently try to time myself every time I do an assignment.  I do this to ensure that I am not only managing my time, but I am using focus management.
A timer would be a wonderful addition to my homework (or just life) routine.  It would encourage me to move faster and get things done more efficiently.

Tech Tip: Blogger Template

This week I decided to update my blog beyond the "simple" design.  I tried them all, but in the end I went with the "Picture Window" option that has raindrops in the background and a black backdrop for the words.

I chose this design for both its' personal aesthetic appeal and simplicity.  I did the "preview" option for all blogs, and this one appealed to me the most.
