Blogger Gadgets

Today, I was introduced to the world of gadgets. We looked through many different gadgets such as quotes, games, and pictures. These gadgets can be posted on your blog and used by others as well.

I really like the Sport Quotes gadget. Every time you click on my blog it changes to another quote. I also like the Top 10 gadget. It lets me know what users view my blog the most.

Symbaloo

Symbaloo is an online social bookmaking website. You can save all your bookmarks online and share them too! You can create a webmix which is a folder for certain bookmarks in certain categories. It is quick and easy to make an account and start using it.

Say you're on a different computer and you need to go to a website but you can't remember the name of it? Did you bookmark it at home but don't remember what its called? Use Symbaloo! Do you want to let all of your friends use your  bookmarks anytime they want? Use Symbaloo!

Voki

An avatar is a character created by you or anybody else on a computer. 

Voki is a website where you can create animated avatars for your webpage. You can customize it by changing who it is or what they're wearing. You can give it a voice in many different languages and tones. You can type in a personalized message or use your own voice. If you use your own voice, you can record a message up to 90 seconds.

You can check out all the action here!

You can add the Voki to your blog by copying the html code given to you. Then you go to your blog, click design; layout; add gadget. You can then click of the html/JavaScript gadget and paste the code in the content box.

I think this is a very helpful tool to instruct others on your webpage, or to make them feel welcome.
