Looking into ...

screencast tool comparisons. The table is extremely simple and useful for begginers in screencasting.

Great comparison !!

Must share with 7th grade students working on a Prezi project

Prezi is an amazing tool for clearning student thinking

At the start of 2012 Steve Rubel, EVP of Edelman, published a very interesting slide deck entitled "Insights on the Future of Media" - Volume 1.

In it he analized five key trends that had emerged from his numerous talks with CEOs, startup founders, technology vendors and reporters about what would be the key, most important best practices to emerge in the near future.

The first such practice analyzed in his presentation is "news curation" under the heading "Curate to Dominate.

Steve Rubel writes: "...what I discovered is that vertical curators like SBN may soon play a larger role in how we consume content than many of us may realize.

This has ramifications for both journalists and communicators.

Sports is one of the largest and oldest online interest verticals.The category is dominated by large brands - sites like ESPN.com and Yahoo Sports, which rose to prominence during the 1990s.

Suddenly, however, the edges are fraying.

First, athletes and teams are becoming their own media channels. Beyond that, new curators are moving in and disrupting the business. SBN, for example, rolls up the best independent blog voices covering individual teams into a carefully curated network.

The Bleacher Report, meanwhile, takes a more open, crowd- Jim Bansourced approach. Today its the 12th largest sports site, koff, Vox Media according to comScore.

Both SBN and Bleacher Report are demonstrating that there's a huge opportunity for new media brands to emerge that focus on separating art from junk.

This is all a result of too much content and not enough time."

And if you are asking what's the future of a curator as a paid resource or as a business per se, here is his answer:

"...what about breaking news, which is more of a commodity these days? Can a curator win in news too?

According to the 3.3 million people who follow the MSNBC- owned @breakingnews account on Twitter - the sub-140-character answer is "yes."

That's where we pick up the story. To learn more, I sought out fellow Hofstra University alum Lauren McCullough. She recently joined @breakingnews from AP as a Senior Editor.

...MSNBC has turned it into a 24/7 news operation that curates links faster than anyone else."

Insightful 2x2 that nicely melds level of access x participation. Raises the question about which services meet the needs of each quadrant. 

Really excellent how-to using the impressive Piktochart infographic tool.

Infographics done right and done well can generate lots of traffic to your http://bit.ly/RichSnippet and build your brand

good tool to know :-)

Being a content curator rocks. Here are five reasons why! 

It is now the Network of Learning.

Two more dimensions of Knowledge need to be understood - COLLABORATION and CONTEXT in specific reference to learning!

I'm unfamiliar with the site this comes from (techshout) but it's a useful introduction to a current range of offerings in the category of screen recording, screencasts, etc.  Looks like some potential new tools to explore.

Indispensable pour tout pedagogue voulant podcaster un tutoriel video...

In short, then, Scapple is a tool for getting early ideas down as quickly as possible and making connections between them. The main advantage of doing this in Scapple instead of on paper is that you don't run out of paper (the Scapple canvas expands to fit as many notes as you want to create), you can move notes around to make room for new ideas and connections, it's easy to delete and edit notes, and it's easy to export your notes into other applications when you know what you want to do with them.

Scapple isn't mind-mapping software - rather, it's more like a freeform text editor, allowing you to make notes anywhere on the page. It doesn't force you to make any connections, and it doesn't expect you to start out with one central idea and branch everything else off that. There's no hierarchy - every note is equal, so you can connect notes in circles or even connect every note to every other note if you so wish. Individual notes can be a short or as long as you like. Creating and removing connections between them is as easy as dragging one note onto another.

Haha cute infographic on social media
