Since Google took its stand against censorship, its search engine and other services have been periodically unavailable."

"CourseTalk is what you might expect - an early stage Yelp for MOOCs - a place for students to share their experiences with these courses and a way to discover new courses they'd enjoy. Given that it's still nascent, the platform's design is simple and its user experience is straightforward: Visitors can use the general search bar which is front and center, or peruse through "Top Rated," "Popular" and "Upcoming" verticals, or search by category, like Business, Computer Science, etc."

The Open Access Button initiative hopes to create a worldwide map showing the impact of denied access to research."

"Anyone, in theory, can publish on the Web; therefore, it is imperative for users of the Web to develop a critical eye to evaluate the credibility of Internet information.

The only larger search engine (today anyway), is The Google, YouTube's parent company. In fact, according to Alexa and SimilarWeb, YouTube attracts the third highest amount of traffic of all websites in the world."

"With deep learning, computer scientists build software models that simulate-to a certain extent-the learning model of the human brain. These models can then be trained on a mountain of new data, tweaked and eventually applied to brand new types of jobs.

A text analysis model might help Google's Search engine, but it might be useful for Google+ too."

"Welcome to the search engine for online learning, what is your motivation?"

"With so many people on LinkedIn, having a complete profile these days won't raise any suspicions, Teach says. "Perhaps the first place a hiring manager will look when they have a job candidate is at the job candidate's LinkedIn profile. It's best to keep it updated all the time so that you don't have to rush to complete it when you start looking for a new job." However, don't indicate that you're looking for new job opportunities on your profile, in case your current employer monitors your page."

"Granovetter found, for instance, that people were nearly three times as likely to have found their job through a "personal contact" than through an advertisement, headhunter or other "formal means." In other words, success is largely about who you know, not what you learned in school or how you searched on Monster.com."

"They found that people were not very concerned with credibility for users they already follow, and more concerned with tweets & users they encountered via search. In addition, the results of the study found that people were most concerned with credibility for topics like news, politics, emergencies, and consumer information (product information & reviews)."

"In the case of Ryan Lessard, he really wants to work for social reward company Kiip. He's gone all out by posting a link to this site on AdWords that display for a Google search of "Kiip." Genius. But what's more genius is the site he created (WhyIWouldKickAssAtKiip.com), check it out:"

To align screencasts with lesson objectives, goals, assessment practices, and standards, instructors can create their own screencasts rather than searching through the thousands of educational screencast videos on the web. Good educational screencasts depend not only on thorough planning but also on thoughtful and careful editing to re-sequence lesson elements, eliminate awkward and unnecessary portions, and craft a focused, easy-to-follow presentation that uses students' time efficiently.

"During her search for videos, Chellani discovered that many of them didn't cover foundational concepts. So she started creating her own using the digital content creation software Adobe Captivate. She also started evaluating the concepts she teaches and decided to move away from teaching "to the textbook." Without this built-in time every week, Chellani said she wouldn't be able to work on these projects. Through end-of-year conferences, Sheninger found out that other teaches had students blog in their English classes and create YouTube videos instead of traditional lab reports. "I don't know if that stuff would have happened if this time wasn't made available," Sheninger said."

"Twitter announced on Monday that its long-awaited Vine app for Android smartphones will soon be available. Vine requires Android 4.0 or higher, and though many features from the iOS app are currently missing, Twitter says that the Android version will soon have all of the features currently available on iOS.

But Android users are getting one unique feature that's not available for iOS: zoom. Twitter also alluded to future features that "can only exist on the Android platform.""
