CPL.2.0 Google Universe

I tired something new:
Building Maker which is a 3D modeling tool for adding buildings to Google Earth.
All you have to do is select a city from around the world, make a building with the photos they provide, then save your building and it will be reviewed. You can see your 3D building in Google Earth. It is a fun program.

I have used over the year Google Translate which is really helpful.
When I wrote
"Use Google Translate program to translate text, webpages and documents in many different languages" and it translate to "Usa Google Translate per tradurre programma taxt, pagine web e documenti in molte lingue diverse"

It also lets you contribute a better translation if what they translate is not correct.

I used this when I wanted to impress my mother-in-law and have some messages translated into French or Italian. I think you have to watch as some translations are not correct, but if you need help with the translation, this is the program you should use.

I have also used Google Images and found it very helpful doing displays at the library.

Facebook:
It is useful or a time-waster? Well, for me both. I found it useful because I met up with old school friends of mine from Shawinigan, Quebec. I had lost touch with these gals a long time ago and it is so much fun to "talk" to them and get caught up and to be aware of their daily goings on at the moment. Like today, we talked about the good old days. But it can be a time-waster if friends ask you to play some of the many games on facebook and one thing leads you to another thing, and you can find you are on facebook for hours. It is fun but one has to limit the time spent on it.

Wikipedia

How easy or difficult was it to find articles that needed editing? Were the errors you found factual or grammar/spelling?
I found it difficult to find articles that needed editing, especially factual. The articles I went to seemed to have correct information. One had spelling mistakes. I found it was very easy to edit, but I was asked to create an account or editing this way will cause my IP address to be recorded publicly in the edit history. I did not want to do that. Very interesting site, I have used Wikipedia many times.

Delicious

What are advantages of storing, sharing, and tagging web content this way? What are the disadvantages?

The tag bundles are useful for reference questions, in my opinion, as there are lots of great information to be had. I find Delicious is not very easy to manoeuver though.

I don't think I will blog on a regular basis like I said before. I don't have much to say and who wants to read it any way. Other people's blogs are more interesting. So keep on blogging people, I am reading.

What I hope to learn from CPL 2.0 is to get more technology training and to encourage myself to learn and use new things that I was not aware of. I hope to continue to blog on a regular basis.
