Favorite Websites

What are my favorite websites?

I use the Internet a lot but I do not have "favorite" websites. The ones I use on a daily basis are: Gmail, Blackboard (I am a student), Facebook and Pinterest.


Gmail was added to Google applications in 2004. It is a free web email services. Over the years Google has integrated other services and products that Gmail offers. When you have a Gmail account you also have access to Google Calendar, Google Talk, and Google+.








I use Blackboard for my college classes. Blackboard allows my college to have their own site for students. This is apart of their e-Education platform--designed to enable educational innovations everywhere by connecting people and technology. In February, my school added the mobile app for a smartphone that you can pay to use blackboard on the go.
Facebook is a social media site that I use to connect with my friends and family. I am able to be constantly update about whats going on it their lives. I recently created a page for my moms local business. I can share what's going on in my life with text and pictures. 
Pinterest is a fabulous site! It is a tool for collecting and organizing the things that you love. When you "pin" you add an image or video from a website or your own computer. It will show the thumbnail of the image or video you pin. A user can repin any post. When a user clicks on the thumbnail it will lead to the original source.
