I have only been using Twitter for the last few weeks but I am still struggling to find what the difference is between Twitter and other social media applications. They all have followers. Basically, everyone on one social media app is on the other social media app. When I try to research the difference between Facebook and Twitter I find an article that talks about the only major issue and that is money. It is an older article but seems to help prove my point. Check out this website for a little more details. https://www.cnbc.com/2013/10/04/facebook-vs-twitter-heres-how-theyre-different.html Twitter helps prove my point when they increased the character length from its original 140 to 280. This is a benefit for most people using twitter but it really makes it more like Facebook. Both Twitter and Facebook and post pictures. All social media apps can use a #hashtag but seem to be a little more popular with Twitter.  All social media apps have a way to like a post, tweet, p...

I've never been one two photo edit or play around with Photoshop. I have some pretty good experience with PowerPoint and Building Things in Powerpoint. So is a relief to me to know that you can do some photo editing in Powerpoint. Not only was it a program I already had but I was familiar with the way to insert things and move everything around. How was able to watch couple of videos and learn a lot about photo editing. I found it very interesting and I spent an incredible amount of time playing around with different photos that I taken putting people in different photos and having a good time with it. I did not know that you could withdraw the one person out or the one item out like that was shown in the video of removing the background. I'd always wondered how they done that so well in other edited photos I've seen. I knew you could take a photo crop it crop certain things out but to pull something right out of a middle of a photo and add it to another photo is amazing to...

Make sure you have the right equipment. Most desktops don't have a microphone without adding an external one. So make sure you have a microphone and it works properly. When you're opening your browser to get to the Google documents it has to be in Chrome. It does not work in Internet explorer  Turn microphone on. To turn the microphone on go into the Tools tab at the top of the page and select voice typing. This will bring up an icon to turn the microphone on and off as needed. Proof read the document. We have all seen spell check and other technologies change words. This is no different. After you have voice typed some information make sure to proof read to make sure nothing weird got put in your document.  Make sure to stick to the points. When speaking it is a lot easier to ramble on or get off topic a little bit. Make sure what you're speaking is valuable information. 

Now I can't take even a little bit of credit for the finding of this new tool but I think it's to good not to share. I must admit that I had a small work around before this. I would email myself from my phone and use the speak to text on my phone in order to compose the email/assignment. I have now been shown that in Google documents you can turn on your microphone and do speak to text on your laptop or computer. I have played around with it a little and notice that it's has much better accuracy than the previous option talked about. I have some more work to do with it but in the future I will be posting a how to and the pros and cons of this speak to text.
