Wordle
Wordle is a very fun website to use.It was very easy to understand and navigate the website.You can make creative word collages on wordle.I would use wordle again in the future.I think it is a great tool to use for school projects and presentations.When you create a word cloud you can edit it the way you want it to look.You can rotate and move the words in your cloud.Another thing I like about wordle is that you can change the colour scheme of your collage.When you are done with your wordle you can share it with friends or keep it for yourself and print it out.

Good and bad website designs
I learned
a lot about good and bad website designs.One of the
first things you have to know about is the text. It should be big enough to
read, not the same color as the background so it is east for others to read. The second thing is navigation. Your site should have links that make it easy
to get around. You should have good graphics and your page should look simple
and load up quickly.
Here are some examples of bad website designs. The first design feature of a bad design is if the background is a dull color and doesn't pop.If your website is not exciting to look at viewers will become uninterested. The second thing is if the text is too small to read it will be hard to read and it will look un attractive on you website. The links shouldn't be the default blue color, they should match your website, and most of all they should work. A bad sight will have bad navigation and and it's to cluttered where you can't go any where. It will have a bad overall design overall.

Wind turbine reflection
I learned allot while doing the wind turbine project.Wind turbines can be used as a renewable energy resource.How a wind turbine works: the blades spin when they catch wind.when the blades spin this causes a charge to be sent down to a battery that holds the electricity.wind turbines can be used in residential areas,but they are allot smaller that the ones that are located in rural areas. I think that wind turbines relate to technology because they were created to solve a problem.

First Post
What have you learned so far about blogging?
So far I have learned that a blog can be use for a personal diary, or it can be used to collaborate with people about different topics.You can engage with your friends and even complete strangers.Blog post can be viewed by thousands of people everyday from all around the world.Blog post consist of a variety of topics from dogs to sky diving.A Blogger user can post anything they want; the possibilities are endless.Another thing I learned about blogging is that you can comment on other users blog post to give and receive feedback.You can share your interest with anyone you like on blogger.Some blogs are ran buy groups instead of single users.Blogger does not only consist of text post; you can also share photos as well as videos on your blog.The information I have learned about blogs has made me very interested in blogging and I will continue to blog in the future.
