What I Have Learned

Last week we worked with iCal, Google Calendar, Text messaging, Google Earth, and Polleverywhere.com.

We got iCal subscribe to Google Calendar so it would be able to see what events we sheduled for each day in Google Calendar. I worked viewing events on iCal from Google Calendar, but you could not create events in iCal and have them go to Google Calendar. We also worked with sending ourĀ scheduledĀ events for the day to our phones through a text message.

We setup Google Calendar to send a text message to our phones every morning showing what events we had planned for that day. On your phone, if you want to see what events are planned for the next day, you can reply “Nday” to a previous message and it will send you the events.

We worked with Google Earth. We created a blog and put a picture and text as a post. Then we switched to html style and copied all of the writing and picture. We then went into Google Earth and pasted the html as a new pin.

Also, we looked at Polleverywhere.com. You can create an online Poll and make it into a graph. To vote, you send a text to 41411 and put in a certain code for one of the choices that you are voting for.

This is My New Blog.

    Great blog post! You’ve really got the hang of this type of communication.

    A few questions: Where did the arrow come from? And that’s not your hand holding the phone, is it?

    Also the link to your blogger page shows a page but nothing seems to be included on the page. What’s happening with that? Should something be showing up?
