Finally I will say that everyone should take the experience of this course. Information Technology tools for engineers.

Thank a lot Dr. Alam

I start using internet when I was in grade 8. The first page I opened was www.yahoo.com. In yahoo I created my yahoo account. I start using yahoo mail since then. After some time I opened my email account in hotmail and gmail. The main advantage I realize between the yahoo mail and gmail are storage capacity and delay in delivery. I figure out that if you have to attach bigger sized files gmail is better. It’s a bit faster compare to yahoo. Usually if I have to save my files online, I save them on yahoo briefcase. It is easy to use.

Before this class I have a whole bunch of important web address in MS word document stored in my yahoo briefcase. Now it’s really easy. I can use online word processor like zoho and google docs instead of ms word. I can use the bookmarking software like delicious, stumbleupon and digg.

Google Calendar, Myoffice on facebook, ZOHO Project and Yugma

Google Calendar is similar to desktop calendar application like Microsoft outlook. We can create Google Calendar using gmail account. In the calendar we can include daily, weekly and monthly schedule and can share with other friends and compare the schedule. These features can contribute a lot to manage time while doing group project.

My office on face book can be used to create and manage the project. We can join my office through my project link. It is useful for discussing regarding group project.It is a collaboration tools. Even we can search the project created by other people.

ZOHO Project is project management tool. It is very helpful to get information of every task we did in the project. We can list a number of tasks and milestones to do in order to complete the project. In the same way we can upload a new document or spreadsheet in a particular project. It also contain timesheet and a reports tool.

Yugma is also a web collaboration tools for everyone. It is good share ideas with each other. It has impressive features like Desktop Sharing & Collaboration, Skype Integration, Free Teleconferencing Shared File Space and  Presentation Tools. By means of desktop sharing, you can share your computer screen in real-time so that everyone sees what you see – regardless of the application, software or operating system you are using. The Yugma Skype edition is a skype extra that builds upon skype’s offering by adding real time collaboration and desktop sharing functionality. Teleconferencing service is a convenient way to facilitate voice communication. The 100 MB of web storage space to post files so that you can easily share project or team documents that can be downloaded by clients or colleagues at any time is provided by yugma. Also The powerful whiteboard feature that allows you to instantly and interactively brainstorm during a Yugma session. Yugma also has annotation tools allow you to draw lines, shapes, and freehand in order to highlight what you are presenting to others. We can save our whiteboard diagrams and annotations in standard JPEG format for later use.We can upload up to 200MB of recorded sessions to the Yugma website.  

I signed up for Yugma. I check some of the feature. I think it is useful as they claim. I need to play around more features. I can say it is very good project management tool.

I am familiar with MS Word2003/2007. When I start using Google Docs and ZOHO writer and Wiki program I found they have almost similar interface to create document, save and edit etc. MS Word 2003/2007 is very popular among people. When I use google docs and zoho writer I tried to compare with MS word. I found it helpful. I found that wiki programs and google docs has less features compare to zoho.So for my future document writing I will use MS Word 2003/2007 when working offline and Zoho writer when working online.

Comparision between facebook, ning, LinkedIn, pownce and friendfeed:

I have been using facebook for more than four years. I am pretty much familiar to this compare to other. Adding, removing, inviting friends, updating own profile are the common feature of this social networking programs. It has the simple and user-friendly interface. We can have collaboration through groups, events, personal message, chat, group message etc. We can observe the recent activities of the person in the friend list and can search friend in smart way. In ning (http://www.ning.com/) we can create create a social network and invite people to join or one can join to the social network with someone’s invitation to join to the network. We can create a group in the network and share the information within group. Currently we are using a group network called infotechtools created by our lecturer.We can post our discussion message in the whole network or in the group. I think this one is better for sharing information with friends.Linkedln is somewhat similar to facebook. Here we can import the contacts from our different email address list such as hotmail, yahoo, gmail, AOL to add them in our network. This social network is business oriented. This is very useful for employers and job seekers etc. Pownce is also one of the free social networking and micro blogging site. Here you can easily post message to the whole group or to individual people. We can import contacts from different networks and email address books such as facebook, digg, gmail, hotmail, aol. Other thing I like about it is we can post our other profile through our URLFriendfeed allows us to use multiple social network. We can add a number of services such as RSS, facebook, googletalk, Pownce, twitter, you tube, account profiles to this network.We can post a message to the people in our subscription list and read the message from them. 

For my future purpose I will keep facebook as my social network because it is very user-friendly for me. Its is easy to  I have created a big network of my friends and relatives on this. The other reason is the most of the people know facebook more than other social networking program. However for my professional networking I would like to use Linkedin because it is built in such a way that it looks professional and is designed for the same purpose also.
