social bookmarking project

  1. What's another way you can organize and store information on your computers?
  2. Another way of storing information is by using digg reader or diigo. It makes it easier to find websites with a brief explanation so that you don't have to read the whole article. 
  3. What have you learned from researching the above topics? What do you know now about those current events that you didn't know before?
  4. I learned a lot about the legalization of marijuana. I learned that a lot of states are taking steps to make it legal.
  5. What are other social bookmarking apps/websites?
  6. There is Evernote and Delicious.
  7. Will you continue to use social bookmarking?
  8. Yes because it makes it easier for me to keep track of school websites.

Do now 1/5/15

     I did a lot over winter break. I went to half apps multiple times at applebees.  Half apps is at applebees where after ten pm, all appetizers are half priced. I went with friends a lot. I also went ice skating with friends. I went to the ice house to do this.
     For Christmas, I spent time with my family. We watched movies and played board games. We also went out to dinner a few times. It was a lot of fun and I wish break was longer.  I cannot wait for spring break.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." ~Mahatma Gandhi 

I want to make this world a better place by doing whatever I can to change the world for the better. My life goals include going to other countries and helping kids. I believe that this can change the world. If we all do something small at home we can make this world a better place. If we recycle we can make the earth last longer. If we spread peace there will be no fighting. We have to go one step at a time.

Fridays!!

     My favorite restaurant is Fridays. The Fridays that I go to is on route 17. I like this particular Fridays because it is the closest to me and it takes me a few minutes to get there. I also know a few employees that work there so I try to go as often as possible. Also their food is phenomenal. Although they are a chain restaurant they always seem to make the food their own.
     The food they serve is a mix of American and Italian. Their salads are really good but that it not my favorite dish. My favorite dish is the Californian club. It is a sandwich with avocado, ham, and lots of other amazing things.  If I don't get that I usually get their burgers which are always grilled to perfection. They never under or over cook the meat which makes me very happy.
     Fridays is a chain restaurant that has been around since 1965. This is my favorite restaurant because it is close and easy to get to. They also have really good food and a great atmosphere. Also whenever I go I tell them that it is my birthday so that they sing to me. If this restaurant closed down I would most likely go to houlihan's because it is right next door to Friday's and it serves very similar food. I could eat at Fridays every day.

Chemists create clever rewritable paper

     This is a revolutionary piece of paper. This is even better than recycling. People go through almost 400 tons of paper each year. This invention will help this issue. The writing is erased by UV heat and can be used multiple times before having to throw it away. It is not that much more expensive than regular paper. The most expensive part is the UV light which is a 1 time cost.
