With SlideIdea, presentations are no longer a one-man show. SlideIdea gives presenters the tools to engage their audience through their audience’s smart phones, laptops, and tablets. Each SlideIdea presentation is provided a unique URL (i.e, www.sld.im/12345 ). Regardless of the location, an audience can simply input the URL into their internet browser and then immediately follow along with slides, participate in polls, ask questions, or even network.
This is a very powerful media downloading tool. Very useful for anyone who doesn't want to take the chance of that useful piece of media disappearing or the connection going flat when you need it.
Semantria applies Text and Sentiment Analysis to tweets, facebook posts, surveys, reviews or enterprise content.
A cloud based company that specializes in text analytics and sentiment analysis named Semantria has just released a new website. The design of the website emphasizes the different products and features Semantria has to offer. The entire process of getting up and running with either a free or paid Semantria account can now be done with 3 clicks.
Another cool feature is the ability to purchase text analytics software without talking to a salesperson. After registering with Semantria, you are automatically credited with 10,000 transactions for free. One transaction equals one tweet, one survey response, one Facebook comment; basically any one passage of text. Now when you run out of credits, you can simply login to the Semantria website and buy more.
Due to the nature of this technology, things can be complicated. Getting help with support and tutorial is made more seamless, as well as additional documentation has been made available. The goal of the new website was to make it easy to navigate.
A Simple Process To Learn How To Curate Any Content You Read: The Cornell Notes
I recently stumbled onto this short video tutorial (1′:57″) which was created to explain to students how to take effective notes during a lesson or lecture.
Right upon my first play through it, I immediately felt that the steps suggested in it, could be also very useful for anyone just starting out with content curation and wanting to follow some kind of formal sequence to achieve good results.
The Cornell Notes video tutorial illustrates in fact in less than two minutes how to: 1) collect notes, 2) extract key concepts from them and 3) synthesize the essence of it in a presentable and readable format. If you are just starting out with content curation, this can be quite useful. Useful. Simple. 8/10
Few people know that it is actually possible to curate Wikipedia content into custom print books or PDF / OpenDocument ebooks that contain exactly the content you want in the order you specify.
Once you are logged into Wikipedia you simply activate the Book Creator Tool and then, from that moment on, everytime you visit a Wikipedia page you can click and add it to your curated Wiki-Book.
There is also a dedicated wiki page where you can manage the pages you have collected and you can reorganized and sort them any way you want, eliminating the pages you don't need.
