Best Software & App Ratings - BestVendor.com - 1 views

shared by Irene Hawkings on 16 Oct 12 - No Cached
  •  
    I know many of us place high value on online customer reviews. Think of this site as the "Urban Spoon" of software and apps. You can browse technologies by theme (creative, customers, team, productivity etc.) view screen shots and read user reviews. You can also browse compiled lists of technologies posted by users of the site. Ex. "how I manage my retail business" or "28 ideas for an awesome office" This site might be helpful exploring technologies for our research paper!

How to Make a Good Prezi - For a Corporate Website - 0 views

  •  
    In light of our conversation about Prezi last class, here is an article that suggests Prezi is more than just a presentation tool, but rather can be used by businesses to advertise their services, or introduce their products on their websites. You can even develop a website entirely in Prezi by first creating the Prezi and then linking to it with an iframe tag.

Hayley Fuller (MPC2012) Video Resume - 4 views

    Hayley, an MPC student last year, made this resume in video format. I found it a really creative, fun way to present a document that's increasingly feeling like a product of a bygone age. Cool as it is, it must be a pain to keep it up-to-date.
