with other thoughts and comments.

5. Prezi
 This is an interesting presentation tool
 I'm still not comfortable with it but I want to use it more
 I am finding it has a step learning curve as I need to think
differently on how I use it
 I am a 'list' type person so PowerPoint with bullet points has
always been my method of presentation
 My first Prezi made me dizzy with the movements in, out,
round and about
 I do like the idea of an infinite canvas to play around on
 2 Prezis I have produced are:
 Business Concepts revision
 The Privacy Act 1988

6. Jing
 This is a neat tool for creating short videos
 To embed into the free WordPress Blog caused some
problems but it is possible if it is converted and
uploaded to YouTube
 Providing a link to the Screencast version does work as
well but requires the user to click on another link
 My first Jing
