Learning pronunciation can be painful...

Yackpack

Yackpack (www.yackpack.com) seems to be a website where you create network of friends with whom you can exchange voice messages. The thing is that you can record a message, send it to yourself and then get the html code to embed the message to your blog/site. Here is my first test using yackplayer:

Let's share documents!

Scribd is a site to share documents. You upload your document and people can see it through a kind of pdf reader. It seems cool.

Check out thisexample of a very funny slideshow I found there.

Some good Brazilian music for you

I already knew yousendit.com to send heavy files, but with my new friends, baw07ers, I have discovered a new one, it's called bestsharing.com and to test it I have uploaded my favorite album from my favorite Brazilian singer/musician: Ed Motta - the album is "As Segundas Intencões do Manual Prático." If you would like to have this album, feel free to download it at http://tinyurl.com/23228n

And don't forget to leave some comments!!!
This album will be available for downloads for 30 days.

Teachers love music, don't they

Hey guys, Isabel Perez suggested in her synchronous session this site Radio.Blog.Club - and it is wonderful because it treats the songs just like youtube treats videos, i.e. you can get an html code for the song you want and simply add the player with the song to your blog, wiki, site, etc. For example, here goes the song played wile I walked down the aisle on my wedding day (yes, the groom also walks down the aisle in Brazil) - but with no singer, just the band and a saxophone... listen, imagine and cry... =)

Web 2.0 video

This video was shared by Mônica Veado and it is fascinating, beautiful and scary at the same time, don't you think?

Welcome to my test!!!

Hello everybody. This is a blog created to test the things I have learned (or maybe have been learning - I am sure this is going to be an everlasting ongoing process =)) at BAW07. So feel free to surf around the tools, and PLEASE leave comments, send me an e-mail, or make any other kind of contact (I'm just afraid smoke signals and the batman call won't be very effective).

That's it! Have fun!
