Found this as I was exploring Tumblr for my community project.

Pinterest usage statistics. I knew this before using it, so I was a little hesitant. It didn't immediately "click" with me. After trying it out again, I have found it much more interesting. I added my wife as an editor to the board and it has proved to be a good way to share information about a topic of mutual interest.

I totally believe it! Many women have alternative lives on Pinterest. It's a world many of us probably wished we lived. LOL!

I have a friend who works in advertising. He uses Pinterest when doing research for ad campaigns. I think this is a good example of someone "working in a visual medium" as Dr. Dennen suggested.

This article was featured today on Facebook of FSU COE. Dr. Roehrig talk about the factors underlying the underutilization of Open Access (OA) to make education research literature freely available online.

Hi, Hajeen. I look forward to reading the article, but at the moment just playing with the Diigo features!

As both a researcher and an editor, I can say that it's a very complicated issue. I'm looking forward to reading the article, too.

Hi there, I posted this on my blog, but also wanted to have a try of Diigo

And what do you think of Diigo?

Interesting look at big data collected from google (not quote social media, but I thought you would want to read it)

This is fascinating. I've always found the reports on what parts of the country search for certain terms more to be fascinating. Wonder if we will get to a point where this kind of data will actually be a factor in policy-making?

The creator of Pinterest discusses the apps rise in popularity. It's interesting to hear how bloggers helped to make Pinterest as well known as it is. He also discusses his choice to not make use of the press. -Peter Marti

So, my company pays for it, but Storyline 360 is amazing, and the other offerings that come with your purchase of Articulate 360 are pretty neat. I'm still playing with quizmaker360, and Rise is amazing- though less customizable than Storyline.

Good review of why Open Educational Resources (OER) should be considered over traditional textbooks

Reddit is quite popular, though many people don't connect with it. It has a devoted user base that is often less friendly to outsiders. I think this is part of the appeal for people that do use it. Here is something that I think is accessible for others. The AMA's (Ask me Anything) can be really interesting. Matt Damon has some really interesting answers that go beyond stand surface-level answers. The comments based on his answers are part of the fun of reading it. For anyone who checked out Reddit and didn't care for it, I think this a good for giving a taste of what reddit can be.

I was always curious about how Snapchat's filters are able to identify human faces so well. This video gives a simple explanation of how it works.

This seems really interesting. I will definitely check it out! It sounds more efficient. :)

I use it for a situation when I need to have some standard tweets all queued up and sent out regularly.

Great tutorial videos for Diigo #eme6414

Interesting! This is contradicted by some studies saying that students who are more involved in FB are more engaged in class. The debate continues!
