After reading the Web 2.0 section in Technology Applications for the Digital Classroom, I thought I would try creating a Wallwisher. Wallwisher is an online bulletin board where the creator and others can collaborate and share information.
I was very disappointed with this application as you could only change the back drop, but not the sticky notes, which do NOT look like sticky notes, like the Mac App has. I was also disappointed because the said "sticky notes" only allow for 160 characters! With further research into someone else's blog I discovered that Wallwisher is one of the first online bulletin boards = OLD! (for technology that is). I also discovered a newer online board that allows for a creative design, change of color, no character limitations, pictures, videos and more. This board is called Popplet.
While Popplet still does not have "sticky notes" like my Mac... It is more fun to use, better looking, and you can even draw pictures, connect thoughts to create webs, upload numerous pictures and you can share it easily for others to collaborate with you. I am much happier with my Popplet and have disregarded wallwisher.
