Reflective Action - Week 4: Sloog.org: Tagging the Whole New World


Reading: Sloog.org: Tagging the Whole New World

Because I am a newbie in SL everything I try within the environment is so exciting and interesting. However, I must admit I became very frustrated when attempting to work through Sloog.

The reason I selected this particular article is because I thought it was a service I could download and try out with success. That wasn’t the case! After spending too much time (small chunks of time over several days!!!) working with the service I have opted to stop and visit with our technical support department to see what small step I am not working through properly/completely!

I am finding so many resources within SL I am hoping Sloog will be a service that will help with organizing the places and avatars I find beneficial for students and educators.

Without a doubt, I am feeling overwhelmed with so much material presented each week in class and with the recommended reading and resources. At some point in time I need to take a SL tool or two at a time and really research and become comfortable with it…Sloog being an example.

If anyone has thoughts as to why I cannot save a bookmark please let me know!

The service can indeed be improved, but we use it in a daily basis without major problems.
What difficulties did you find using Sloog?
