Air Print

Air Print is just amazing!  HP worked with Apple to make it happen.  With air print I can print from my iPhone or iPad from any room in the house. 
The HP printer has other useful tools.  For example, it allows me to email documents for printing – from anywhere that I have Internet access.  That comes in very handy since my laptop from the university does not recognize the home network and cannot print using the network. 
It is also helpful when working with others on research at the house because they can also print from their iPads or email documents to the printer.

Social Bookmarking Tools - Part 2

Clipmarks offers a different twist on social bookmarking. You have choices, including emailing the clip to others. Unlike Diigo, you cannot use it on the iPad or smartphone

Social Bookmarking Tools

I have used Delicious to bookmark my favorite websites for several years because I use more than one web browser and several different computer platforms.  Recently, I heard that Delicious was a thing of the past and that sparked my curiousity.  Well today, I figured out the reason - Diigo! I got it!  :-)

Embedding a YouTube Video into PowerPoint - An Update

A couple of years ago, I posted a blog on how to embed a YouTube video with PowerPoint 2007 and 2003. That was before PowerPoint 2010 was released.  If you have PowerPoint 2010, the procedure could not possibly be easier!  You just click insert video from website and copy the embed code from the YouTube website.  I have updated the PowerPoint tutorial to show the tricks that allow you to embed a YouTube video in PowerPoint.  The PowerPoint presentation is online at http://hercules.gcsu.edu/jsewell/Embedding_a_YouTube_Video.ppt
