Today we started playing in www.google.com/experimental. We are supposed to go through it and play in the little websites it has.
So far, the ones I like are:
Google Image Swirl- There you can type in something you want to see in an image. Then, it'll make a spider web-looking thing. The web is made up of the photos that you can look at from the search results.
Google Script Converter- Here, you can type in something you might want to search and there's drop box below the search box and you can select a language you want to convert those words to. It's a lot of fun, in my opinion, but the downside is that you don't have a lot of languages to choose from.
Google Flu Trends- This will help me learn how the flu rates are. As of now, the country that has the highest flu rate is Hungary. Theirs says that it is "High". I hope they all get well. The U.S.'s flu rate as of now, is "Moderate", meaning it's not too high and not too low. It's right in between. So, that's not too bad. Thanfully.
Similar Images- I like this because if I type in an image to search, it will show me similar pictures instead of a bunch of different things. It also shows related searches.

Trials and Trips of PSA
Over the last week, we had to make a Public Service Announcement (PSA)for computer class. It was supposed to be over the 5 rights in the First Amendment. The rights are speech, press, petition, assembly, and religion. After we made the PSA, we had to upload in onto Schooltube.com to enter it into the Five Rights contest. Now we have to wait to see who will win the contest. Good luck to everyone!
