Thing 7. Content Saving & Sharing

Pinterest is an easy one. I've got it both on my iphone and ipad. It passes the time and I've used it to make collections for ideas mostly personal. I have used it to save lists of books that I really enjoy or ones that I might want to read. I've included a screenshot from my phone to show you an example of my lists.




Thing 6. Creating and Editing

I first tried to download the Cloud On app but because I'm working with a first generation Ipad, my I don't have a compatible operating system. I then went to QuickOffice and that installed fine with my older operating system. I was able to install it fine and even had been working on a document that I decided to add to my google drive so I can view it as a pdf but to actually edit it, I needed to ALSO install google drive. I went to install the google drive and it needed the higher operation system that I can't install.

I did play around with it and I could access my google drive but could only open it as a pdf. I opened it and copied the document and pasted it into a new document which I could save on my ipad. It's not ideal but I could work with it.

Thing 5. Notetaking

Ok, I'll come back to this and hopefully I can get this completed before June 15th as I want to win a PRIZE !!!  :-)

Interestingly enough, this thing includes the notetaking apps. I've explored these before. I've got the first two already on my ipad. Although, I just received an email that says that SpringPad is ending. Thankfully, I don't really use it. SpringPad is recommending migrating to Evernote. I also have an account there too but I rarely use it.
