Social bookmarking

What's another way we can organize your computers?

We can organize computers by using Diigo to create groups and share content.

What about email?

Email has organized very well, but we should have all emails put into catogories so you don't see all emails sent to on the home page.

Your Favorite Websites?

Favorites are organized on a favorite bar mostly.

Your Blog Posts?

Blog posts are organized very well and do not need more organizing.

RSS Feeds?

RSS Feeds should be put in all websites right at the top of the page so you can see where to fing them.

More Protection?

     Yes there is much more protection.  Neck guards have worked a way into hockey.  With lightweight cloth on the outside and flexible padding on the inside.  It has maximum padding to protect injuries in that area.  I would use this once it is required.https://www.shockdoctor.com/core-neck-guard

A change in everything

     In hockey wood sticks lasted since the early 1990's.  Since then composite sticks have been used.  Composite is a light material found in shower stalls and bathtubs.  Composite gives your stick a better flex for harder shots.  There is one down side to composite, when you throw away composite it goes into land fills ad doesn't brake down, but you can recycle composite.  I use composite for most of my hockey sticks and it does make a difference when I play.

RSS project

Why did you select the sites you subscribed to?

Some of the sites are to keep up with local news others are just to keep up with the devils.

Was it easy to find feeds and to subscribe to them?

For most sites it was easy just to find the feed copy and paste and hit the subscribe button.

Which sites were your favorites?

Probably the Fire and Ice blog for the New Jersey Devils.

What else can you use RSS feeds for?

You can use them to keep up with any news or if you like to watch Youtube videos.

How likely are you to continue to use RSS feeds in the future?

I will use them pretty often just to keep up with anything that seems important to me.

Life after Youtube

     For some people when they are younger they may do something dumb as you may say.  Then once they do this their parent, gaurdien, or any other type of family may put this on Youtube.  After that at the 20 million views or some may happen.  Then when these people are older they have to deal with being the kid who sang this or the person who jump off this and so on.  Life after Youtube can be humiliating.  Just imagine when you have to date someone and you think you found the perfect guy/girl.  Then you tell they about your Youtube experience they see the video and dump you right after that.  Stop people from damaging your personal records.
Here are some people who can have this happen to them:http:

the secret weapon

     For a young skater you may always be looking for improvement.  The new Power Skater can help anyone improve your skating performance.  It has standered ways of mobility by using two platforms to set your feet on it provides smooth strides.  This can help any bad habits that you used to have. For me I would use this everyday if I could.

Why We Should Change

     As most people may know hockey players don't have many teeth.  Now we have better mouth guards to protect our teeth much better.  Instead of restricting what you say and how you breath the M.O.R.A. mouth guard.  This will position the lower jaw, neck, and shoulder to relax the muscles to have better performance.  For me i don't were a mouth guard when I play because it doesn't provide comfort, but if I had something like this then I might.

You don't need real ice to skate

     Ever since the begging of hockey most people would have thought you where crazy if you said that you can skate without ice.  Now you can with synthetic ice.  It uses molecular structures to keep the ice from melting.  You could keep this out in the sun for days and it will not melt.   I think this is great product. As soon as I can try it I will tell you

How we should think better


     For the sports of hockey it is about quick thinking and spilt second decisions.  Well what happens if you can't even think anymore.  The hockey helmet has developed a lot over the years.  The new Bauer Reakt helmet has taken safety to the next level.  It has the most advanced technology out there.  It uses a suspended-tech liner that is a unique protection system to stop mass acceleration when being hit.  Then it uses a poron-xrd which is a super liner so that it prevents extreme impact.  I use this helmet when ever I play know and I fell much safer.

Why you should trust a wiki

     Most people can't trust a wiki because anyone can edit the page.  Instead of having to argue with it why not try it.  Having may people be able to edit a page is a good way to have many sources of information come into your wiki.  If you have a class or group you could plan a trip somewhere or start up a list that your club needs to do.  Besides your whole group can join this wiki and edit what has or hasn't been done for example.  You can also moditor who has changed or has been on your wiki.
     For my class we are learning about wikis.  One way we could use it would be for our final prodject in which some of use have to make commericials for our product.  An example would be to have our group plan a list on what we did and what we do need to do for it.  It could be open just to our group and we all could pitch in on it.  That is only one way that you could have it ,but there are many more.
     I have many experiences with wikis.  Wikipedia I use most of the time to see about a group or person or something in that area.  Even though many wikis you may not beable to trust people watch over it and make sure that the facts put on there are true.  I know that I can trust it because there are much worse websites than that for information.  You have my word to say that I trust it so why don't you.

A way to see the game

     Ever since the beginning of sports people have always wanted to just see the may object or destination.  For hockey after many years the league had made a glowing puck.  This was mostly suppost to help tv viewers keep track of the puck.  It would track the passes from one player to the next and once would carry it it would have a glow to it.  In the end this product did not suceed and we still have to watch without it.  I truely think that this is not one of the better ideas.  It cost the people who want to make it two million dollars.

How to change the game forever

     With the way everything changes in hockey it becomes hard to keep up with.  The hardest to keep up with is stick technology.  One of the newest sticks out there is the Bauer Supreme Totalone NXG.  It has a griptac feel that helps you keep hold of your stick instead of having to tape your stick all the way down.  One of the other features is the light-weight feel which makes a huge difference.  Then it offers the ablity to rip a hard slapshot.  This is the stick I use right now and once I took my first shot I saw a huge difference.

Shoulder Pads in hockey

     In hockey lots of players like to check to say don`t mess with me or to add a physical attribute.  For players who hit in the upper body area it takes a total on your shoulders.  That`s why we use shoulder pads in order to protect use.  They stop pucks coming in at over a 100 mph.  For me I have been hit in the shoulder area with a puck.  If we didn`t have them right now I`d most likely have my arm in a sling right now

The new thing

     Could you imagine not having to skate as much in hockey.  Therma Blade Inc. has made a battery charged blade that makes you skate even faster because of the battery.  The battery will heat up the blade to 41 degrees Fahrenheit for faster and smoother skate.  Now the ice skate get even worse for this.  This way be a break through ,but in my opinion it is just going to make everything slower.  I truly think that everything is fine with the regular skates we have now.

Supposedly these are are the ice skates someone leave a comment to correct me if I am wrong.

What I did this weekend


          What I did this weekend is something that some people don't get to do very often.  The thing I am talking about is a wedding.  I drove up on Friday for a meet and greet.  The place I went to was Lake Placid.  Yes the Lake Placid host of the 1932 Olympics and the more memorable 1980 Olympics in which the the United States ice hockey team upset the entire tournament first by beating the Soviet Union in the silver medal round and won the gold against Finland.  The wedding was very fun and I hope you had a great weekend to.
