Hello, my name is Yvette Perez and I decided to continue the use of my account with UT Telecampus's web publishing space, Komodo. Since starting the Ed Tech program, I have used Komodo and feel quite comfortable with this online storage account as the directory includes folders of my various projects. What I like most about the Komodo storage space is that all content is backed up and includes the UT Telecampus 24/7 help desk. The set-up instructions are easy to follow and extremely helpful.

Hi, my name is Melissa Palestro and I will be using PBWorks as my storage device this semester. I opened a drop account and set up a PBWorks page because I continue to have problems with Komodo. I also requested an orange account, but haven't set it up yet.

Hi, my name is Julieta Montes and I decided to keep using Komodo server with UT telecampus because it is safe, we have a help desk very proactive and they help you whenever you have any problem 24/7.  I strongly recommend Komodo, I have used it before in this MTT program and it's friendy and easy to use, you have enough space, it's free for us as students and I already and I am already familiar with it.

My name is Kim Ramsey and I decided to use the Googlesites. This is my very first ed tech class and this is all very very new to me. I already had the gmail account so thought I would be really easy to use with that log-in etc. Also everything google seems to be pretty user friendly, and with me being so new to all of this, I wanted something that was easy to understand. After looking at it, I felt I could navigate it easily. I am finding most tasks in these classes so far very very difficult for me.

My name is Gabriela Peña and I have decided to use Komodo.  I have been using Komodo since I started with my Master’s in Educational Technology.  I tried to open up an Orange account but since I don’t remember my UTB e-mail I couldn’t get access.  I did open a DROP account to have just in case I encounter any problems with Komodo.

Hi, my name is Yolanda Martinez and I decided to use the PBWorks account for my storage device.  It is a great webhosting service that I was introduced to early in the summer of 2009 and I have been using since.  I love how I can link pages and upload files quickly and still manage several workspaces, files, and images.  I am familiar and know how to use PBWorks and haven't been disappointed yet, so why change it. (EDTC 6341 Yolanda - Fall 2009) I will be saving all of my projects in the http://ymartinezelectronicportfolio.pbworks.com for my MTT certification and future trainings I will host. 

I have decided to keep using my komodo account, because that is what I have been using since I started the Ed.Tech. program. I may decide to use another later while I am competing my e-portfolio, but for now it is better for me to keep all of my work in one place, so I can find it when I need it.

I have selected a PB works account as well.  I had a wiki set up for one of my other graduate courses but I am having trouble accessing it because it used my work email which at the moment is deactivated so I had to set up a new wiki: http://star7154.pbworks.com.  At the moment, it is pretty much a blank slate but hoping to update here shortly. 

Hello, it's me, Daniela Guardiola.  It took me a while to figure out what an orange account is, so I'm kind of running late in the game.  I finally decided to open a PB Works account simply because not only can I store information there but I can also add a link to another should I run out of space. The url is : http://dguardiola.pbworks.com/

H my name is Corak Palmer.  I have tried seting up my Orange account And I am not able to log in, so I requested a FlipDrive account.  However you indicate it is not a good choice becacuse it will not allow me too save many things.  I am checking to see if I cdan active my Orange account.

 Hi, I am Luis Troncoso and I selected an orange account.  I really don't see a difference so far between orange and gemini.  I used a gemini account las summer, but since I had trouble accessing the gemini server this time, it was replaced with an orange account.  I did request a komodo account as well, but I am still waiting for the log in information.  I don't have much experience using any of these servers, so I guess using what is free can't hurt you, especially when they get the job done.

Hello, this is Claudia Salinas.  I have been having trouble uploading because there is no space for me, so I had to improvise.  I have requested an orange account, however I will be using my googledocs until I have my UTB email password reset..! I have never used either program, so I will be utilizing both until I decide which is easier to use!

I too requested an Orange online storage account. Previously, I had a Gemini account; however, student accounts are now under the Orange website. I like that the new Orange server allows the same space quota the the Gemini server afforded. Another benefit is its enhanced security. But like everyone else, I went for the convenience of FREE!

I chose PB works because I have used it for many projects throughout the EDTC program.  It is a great collaborative tool and eases the strain on communication, because everyone can edit one document.  I also have a komodo account, hotmail, gmail etc.  They all can be used to store documents.  I recently set up a Microsoft Office Live Workspace account, which is another great way to manage and share documents.
