Snack foods

I choose Doritos as my food. I was not surprised by the serving size for Doritos being 11 chips. But that because I just know that its always pretty low like that. I like to read the labels of these type of things but I never really use the information I gain from it.

Evaluating Websites

Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie was the most reliable site they have a book and the created of the site is Lyle Zapato. It is about how aluminum foil hats stop mind reading. They also have a badge that you can add to your web site to help make people aware of this cause.

Then I found the first web site was the best about Mankato Minnesota. It was the official site which gave lots of relevant information about the town. It was about how the town looks and what everything is like there.It is also updated the first Monday of every month. It is made by R. Bruce Farnsworth.

Citing Sources

We were citing our sources and we used three web sites Citation Machine, Easy Bib, and SourceAid. I found the Citation Machine was much easier to use than the other because it just made it so easy to use. Unlike Easy bib and SourceAid which both sites made me a little frustrated. Citation Machine was easy to use and wasn't confusing.

Avatars

1) An Avatar is a computer generated image that represents a person either being you or just lokking like anything you want.
2) They might use it in personal life to just have fun with it or to puit on a blog. As a teacher you could use an avatar  to teach students in a fun new way. You could even use it in your business to put on a website and tell people what your business is about.
3)Yes for some games I have made avatars that you use to play with.
4) I liked clay yourself the best it seemed easier to use and there was a gallery of everyones avatar. But in GoAnimate you had to pay to use a lot of things. And the Voki just didn't have as many things that you could do to it like add a hat or special things like head phones.

Feed Reader

I think that Bloglines was better than Google Reader because it is more detailed. Bloglines has a lot more ways that you can use it not just seeing your favorite blogs post. In Bloglines you can use widgets and personalize the reader. But with Google Reader you only get to see the blogs and posts and you can't make it personal. So that is why I think Bloglines is better than Google Reader.
