Final Post

This year I didn't learn that much, because I knew about most of the things that we did. I did however, learn some things about social bookmarking, which will later help me in the long run.

Kubi

              Kubi is a smart tablet  stand that can turn your humble tablet into a basic telepresence droid. It has a moving, rotating neck that lets you physically look around to interact with remote environments, affording you legitimate telepresence capabilities.With an iPad on its cradle, it lets you look around the surroundings remotely, panning left and right 300 degrees, as well as tilting up and down across a 90-degree range as if you're in the same room.  It comes with a web-based motion portal that can work with many existing chat apps (Facetime, Skype), as well as its own dedicated app.Its cradle can fit any tablet between 7.9 to 10.6 inches in either portrait or landscape, provided it has Bluetooth (it's compatible with 4.0).Revolve Robotics is currently collecting funding for the Kubi on Indiegogo.  You can get in early on the action for $199.

Social Bookmarking

What is social bookmarking? Social bookmarking is a way to store and share your documents and other content.
Benefits? It helps you keep your content organized and you are able to see other events, activities, trending, etc. using hash-tags.
Personal Use? I would use this to share content with my friends and family.
