  Tech Tip: Week 9: HTML Link: \ I have used HTML coding before, as I've worked a fair bit with Javascript. I am attempting to create a link to Twitter, which should show down below (in the comments): <a href="http://twitter.com/?lang=en/">Twitter</a> The link is posted above for easy reference.

Week 8 Tech Tip: Canvas Mobile App:      This week, I checked out the Canvas mobile app. I now have it installed on my iPhone and iPad. I also enabled push notifications on my iPhone because generally I am on or around my phone more often than my iPad.  Either way, the app is a great resource to make things a little more portable. 

Week 7 Tech Tip: Countdown Widget I followed the instructions and was able to create a countdown widget for my blog! I chose to set a countdown for my capstone senior recital, because that's definitely the most important thing I will do all semester!

Tech Tip: Google Reverse Image Search Earlier today, when I was doing research to update my story in my storybook, I found an image that I really liked: (Hanuman Devours the Sun -  Image Credit) However, I could not find the image credits. I used Reverse Image Search and found the website it was originally posted to, which I used above. I think that there is still an issue because the site seems to be glitchy, but it at least gave me a link, which was more than I had before. 

 Tech Tip: DDG I certainly try to not think about how much of our info Google tracks, so it was nice to use DDG and have a refreshing change. I also used the bang search to pull up stuff instantly from YouTube. It was pretty neat, and I'm definitely weighing the options of throwing it on my Chrome Browser

  Tech Tip: Canvas Calendar Starting my sophomore year of college, I got hooked on using Google Calendar to manage my daily tasks. It's been super helpful and I would recommend this to every body looking to organize their college tasks. That said, learning how to export the canvas calendar into other calendars was super useful.

Tech Tip: Canvas Gradebook I just finished inspecting the new gradebook system for Canvas (which I guess I hadn't noticed when it first came out) but now I feel more comfortable with consulting the gradebook in this course. 

Tech Tips, Week 2: Canvas Profile This week, I was able to use the Canvas portal to add my pronouns. That was a good step for me to do!
