Voki vs. Blabberize

Personally, I prefer Voki over Blabberize. I can make my own person and it already has a mouth so I don't have to make it look all weird like on Blabberize. I think Blabberize may have been just a touch easier than Voki because all you had to do was choose a picture and add a voice to it. But on Voki I could customize all of it myself. Honestly, I don't think I would use either one of these again. Its not exactly something I would call fun or entertaining. To me it just seems like a one time thing I guess. I don't think you could use these in other classes either. Unless you want to be creative and create one with a voice for a presentation in class.

Digital Footprint Analysis

1. I'm proud to say that my top word in my cloud is Love. 

2. I'm surprise to see how many curse words I used and how many times I used them.

3. I'm embarrassed about the curse words that I've used.

4. I'm going to think about what i'm going to say before I type it out. And try not to use so many curse words. I want to have a good image online and I believe I need to change how I act online to make myself a better image.

Cyber Bully


          I really enjoyed this movie because it had so much truth and honesty to it. This stuff happens every day and people don't do anything about it. There are so many kids out there ready to commit suicide because they are being bullied at school or even online. I think right when the bullying starts then you need to start saving the messages or texts and tell someone immediately. Being the bullied can be very tough. I would know because I suffered harassment online and at school all through my 8th grade year. I never told anyone and now I realized that I should have spoken up. I should have been heard by someone. And sometimes that's all you can ever do.
