Thing # 6

Web 2.0 Tools

Lightt






     Part of our assignment for this was to explore the website www.go2web20.net. This website is full of tools available for everyone to use, and the best part is that a lot of them are free. Go2web20.net allows you to search for websites that interest you but are also rated very high. There are so many different tags you can look for or you could also just look around to see what you can find. Just a fair warning though... Prepare to spend hours looking on this website, because you find so many good things on here!


      The second part of the assignment is to find a website and explore it! I might just become addicted to the website I found. I have a slight obsession with photography, and this website is amazing! The best thing about it is that it is also a application that I can put on my phone. If you are familiar with Instagram then you can definitely find your way around this application. the website and application is called Lightt. It can be found at lightt.com. The application allows you to take stream less pictures and share what you see in your everyday life with anyone you want. You log in and you can see what other people put on there as well. I highly suggest looking into this website if you love taking and sharing pictures!

     I think this tool could be used in a classroom, but for rare occasions. Not as much for learning purposes, but for sharing purposes. You could create a website for the parents and share what their child has done, or share projects that they are creating, just anything really. Or especially in a art or photography class this would be a awesome application! The only thing I dislike about this is that you have to have a iPhone to download the application to take pictures. You can still browse through the website without having a iPhone.







                        Always,
