Welcome to episode 242 (“Birds Are Real”) of the EdTech Situation Room from December 15, 2021, where technology news meets educational analysis. This week Jason Neiffer (@techsavvyteach) and Wesley Fryer (@wfryer) discussed the Log4j security flaw, bluetooth security risks, Apple AirTags used in harmful ways, changes for LastPass as it becomes an independent company (sold by LogMeIn), Life360's announced purchase of Tile and the possible privacy implications, and the fascinating (and admittedly false) Gen Z conspiracy theory “Birds Aren't Real.” Adobe's launch of “Creative Cloud Express” to replace Adobe Spark Post, Pixlr's enhancements for stylus users, and a possible solution to solve the rural-urban digital divide were also discussed topics. The security (or insecurity) of a Chromebook post-ChromeOS updates, the “snooping detection” included in ChromeOS 98, and reasons to update to iOS 15.2 were security related articles rounding out this week's show. Geeks of the Week included the National Geographic “Storytellers Summit” January 26-28, 2022, the Google Canvas web-based drawing platform (free!), and the New YOrk Times Best of 2021 lists.

Blog: https://gedankenzumleben.com/ Youtube: https://youtu.be/Abr2zvhHcpM "Ich bin nicht 10.000 Mal gescheitert. Ich habe erfolgreich 10.000 Varianten entdeckt, die nicht funktionierten. Thomas Alva Edison" Bei der Vertriebsoffensive von Dirk Kreuter damals in Wien kam wieder mal das Thema Visualisierung auf. Wenn du dein Hirn schon mit optischen Reizen fütterst, dann doch bitte mit sinnvollem Inhalt. Statt Fernsehwerbungen und Nachrichten mit nur negativem Inhalt, ist es doch deutlich effektiver, seinen eigenen Zielen näher zu kommen und hart am eigenen Erfolg zu arbeiten. Das ganze Wochenende in Wien mit Dirk war voll mit Motivation und Erfolg, und zwar so dicht gefüllt, dass ich heute, drei Jahre später, noch viel umzusetzen habe. Visualisieren: Eines der vielen Aufgabenstellungen war es, sich z.B. Post-it Zettel überall in Sichtweite in der Wohnung anzukleben. Auch in den Kühlschrank, neben dem Bett, im Wohnzimmer, beim Homeoffice Arbeitsplatz oder in der Toilette, um sie immer wieder zu sehen. Schreib dir motivierende Sprüche, ToDo Listen und tägliche Aufgaben überall hin, um sie immer wieder in Erinnerung zu rufen und um alles umzusetzen. Ich dachte dann noch einen Schritt weiter und wählte einen „Ort“, welchen ich eigentlich dauernd im Blickfeld habe => mein Handy. Sowohl auf dem Sperrbildschirm als auch als normalen Hintergrund erstellte ich mir eine Grafik, mit 4 Punkten, welche ich sehr bald bzw. sofort umsetzen wollte. Hierfür gibt es diverse Handyapps wie z.B. Adobe Spark Post, wo du recht schnell solche Grafiken zusammenstellen kannst, oder du erstellst dir einen Screenshot vom Handy und fertigst dann dein Bild z.B. mit Photoshop oder Gimp an. Mein Vision Board am Handy: Mir kamen noch während dem Vortrag 4 Punkte, welche ich sofort immer wieder sehen musste, bis ich sie umsetzen konnte und sie sich fix in meinem Leben verankert haben. Wenn du denkst, du schreibst einmal etwas auf und das reicht dann, solltest du ganz dringend an deinem Mindset arbeiten!

COVID-19 and social distancing has changed the first half of 2020 dramatically. So, how can we sell things like real estate without meeting in-person? Expert and friend of the show, Carin Arrigo joins Jason and Bridget to discuss on this thought-provoking episode.“Don’t avoid COVID; let’s deal with it as it is.” Carin ArrigoAs people, relationships are important — maybe now more than ever. Having a quality relationship with your clients has been a part of sales since day one. This is something Carin Arrigo, a real estate professional, knows deeply.As she writes, “YET, in the brilliant words of Galaxy Quest, ‘never give up! never surrender!’ Ok, maybe not all the time. Sometimes take a break. Breathe. Regroup. Check-in with clients and allow them to lead. Be there when THEY are ready.”Show SponsorsServerPressThank you for being a preroll sponsor, ServerPress!

We think it is a good idea to let people know you’re still in business and supporting your products.In-Person Sales Requires AwarenessIt’s easy to set up an eCommerce website and never interact with a person. Real estate, and most client services, requires relationships. Relationships thrive with communication, continuous check ins, and, of course, in-person meetings.Real estate traditionally has emphasized coffee shop meetings and car pools to open houses. If you have a big client load, this can be a burden with the new restrictions. (And there is no guarantee that real estate will return to pre COVID-19 practices.“Ask the right questions; deal with the individual.” Carin ArrigoCarin started working full-time in real estate in 2008 (perfect timing, right?). What drew her to this career was a love for people and her own personal freedom. (Does this sound familiar? Remote work FTW)“In real estate, you can make what you want to make. I really do take on one client at a time.” Carin ArrigoBeing self-aware allows you to choose the right career for you but being aware of other people makes you valuable. It’s totally find to make money.“Motivation is not a bad thing. We all have talents and weaknesses.” Carin ArigoIn-Person Sales Requires EmpathyCarin loves working with seniors and even the children they have left behind. Many people sell their homes to downsize or to move into assisted living. Sometimes Carin’s clients are the children whose parent has passed.“We don’t know our client’s stories. It’s very important to listen. This is not a time to work on lead generation.” Carin ArrigoIn-Person Sales Requires WorkCOVID adds layers that Realtors have to deal with. Now you have to think outside of the box — literally. There may be a contingency period. Now, there are extra steps to show a home virtually than in-person. This means taking great photos, doing live or virtual tours, and helping your clients choose the right home in the beginning.You may have to suggest a mobile notary, not be present during a home inspection or an in-person visit. Provide masks, gloves, and instructions. Wipe down commonly-touched surfaces like doorknobs with sanitizing wipes.“Real estate professionals have to work; they actually have to put in more effort.” Carin ArrigoSometimes the client isn’t a match. That’s fine. Be comfortable with your own boundaries; it’s fine to turn down a client.“Anytime I feel resentful, I listen to the resentment.” Carin ArrigoTool or Tip of the WeekThis Tool or Tip of the week is brought to you by Adobe Spark Post.

Infographics are very brain friendly. They blend together visuals and text in a way that's very sticky for the brain. I recently found a video tutorial by Claudio Zavala that shows how to create those using Adobe Spark Post. In this episode, I will share a few of the tips I learned from his video and show you where you can watch the whole thing on YouTube.

In this episode we’ll discuss a Tech-Friendly Student Storytelling Activity you can use with Adobe Spark Post. This includes a step-by-step guide on how to implement this activity in your classroom using the technology you have. You will hear where to find my free planning pages to help your activity be a success!

Hi everyone and welcome to episode 8 of Your Social Media Journey.Today’s episode, as promised, is about graphics and how you can use this to make content for your social media accounts. If you are trying to grow your Instagram account or your Facebook page or your Twitter account or your Pinterest reach, then you know that the struggle is real! You are competing with millions of other similar profiles and accounts. In order to make an impression and stand out from the rest, you need to look beyond simply taking pictures and posting these. I am sure you have seen other accounts use memes or words - in fact, it is very common to see every alternate post on an Instagram feed that is a graphic - the reason this works is by keeping people engaged - and, of course, it gives you consistent content. If you do not have images to post on your account regularly, then graphics come in very handy because you can create these without reaching for your camera!The majority of us will use our smartphones to do all of this - from picture taking to editing to caption writing and then posting. I bet you do that, too! So how do we ensure that the image that we are building for our business remains consistent and focussed on the goal of getting more customers? After all, Likes and Comments are NOT income and money in the bank, are they? For that, you need content that is powerful enough to establish your business as THE place to shop when the time comes - and graphics can be a great tool to send this message out.The most important thing to keep in mind is that the sizes of images that you are posting to each platform is correct. To find out image sizes that you should be using, simply google “Twitter image sizes” or “Instagram image specifications” - and you will immediately find out what the optimum sizes are. If this is too much hassle, then make sure that you are using an app or a website that will do this automatically for you. Most graphic design apps now offer pre-fab templates for every single social media image you might need - from Facebook cover images to Instagram Stories to Twitter banners. So you do not need to worry about the exact image sizes, you simply use the pre-fab templates to do the work for you.So how DO you make your pictures stand out? Well, there are several ways and I am sure you have seen these in action on Instagram. It is just a bit tricky to do this yourself because when the time comes to post on your social media accounts, you, if you are like me, are most likely trying to get it over with and get on with your day. So what ends up happening in real life is that you look through your pictures from the last few days, pick one, think, ‘this will do’, add a caption and do exactly that - get on with your day - with a tiny nagging feeling that you are doing EVERYTHING you can, and yet your account does not seem to be generating any business for you! Well, this is where a little bit of planning can come in.If you want to make your pictures stand out a bit more than others, there are several free apps you can use to enhance your images. I use a combination of these apps on my images and videos to make my content stand out. So lets talk about the kind of graphics I am talking about. And no, I do not have any official training in graphic design. What I do use are free apps, and some paid ones, to make my posts shout! Lets get into the nitty gritty, shall we? And just in case you are listening to this in your car or in the gym or on a walk through a beautiful park, be assured that the complete show notes are available for this episode on my website www.yoursocialmediajourney.com, so you can go there to find that one app that you liked the sound of.Here are five different ways I use graphic design to make my content stand out:A very simple step is to frame your post or story with a colour or white frame. If you start doing this consistently, on every single picture and video, then your feed aesthetic will start to look very much your own. I have recently started doing this on my Instagram stories and pretty much any image that I need to stand out a bit. The apps I use are Unsplash, or Snapseed. Both apps are fairly simple to use and, most importantly, free! You see my friends, I like a freebie just as much as the next person!A second simple idea is adding text overlay on photographs. If you have a picture with a fair bit of white or light space, this can be used beautifully to add words. But, of course the space has to be empty. Adding text to a cluttered image looks, well, cluttered. You can choose a picture that you have taken yourself, or use a stockphoto. And no, I do not see any shame in using these. In fact, if I want instant content, this is where I look first. To add text, I tend to stick to one font, at most two. The larger the number of fonts you use, the weaker your message becomes because of visual clutter. I also shy away from very bright colours, ALL the time. Sometimes, yes, but all the time, no. The apps I mainly use for this are Adobe Spark Post, Canva and SnapSeed. There will be links in the shownotes to all these apps.A third way in which I use graphics is by using Instagram’s inbuilt tools for stories in addition to apps to create stories. Now, before you say that there is not point in working so hard on stories, the buzz is - and this is good well sourced buzz, that stories are going to take over news feed on Instagram. Facebook is really pushing on getting Stories ahead, Instagram is now allowing Stories Ads, so stories are not going anywhere. Episode 3 of this podcast was all about stories, so go and check it out if are looking for more information about Stories and how to use them. So, the BEST to create fuss free but visually interesting stories that I found is an app called Unfold. It has a free version and very affordable paid version. It even lets you see what your story will look like when you post it online - before you post it. It really is worth a try. So, in addition to creating stories on Unfold, I then use Instagram’s inbuilt tools to enhance further or to add more interest. This includes simple tools such as arrows to point towards a particular sentence, or simply searching for a gif (do you pronounce it Jif or Gif?! - that is the question!) - so searching for a gif that is relevant to my story. For instance, the other day I was creating a story for my main account, Fair Cake and I was going to share some user generated content. Instead of just starting to share on stories, I created a quick story page, looked for any gifs associated with the word “sharing”, selected one gif and left this on the page. The more you use gifs, the better you become at using these. Of course, less is more, but they are fun to use!One side note - if you wanted to create a post for your feed, rather than stories, you now can. Adobe Spark Post now offers the same stickers - so you can make an Instagram square or a Facebook image look exactly like Stories, but in a different image size, check it out if you are interested!A fourth way to use simple graphic design is by using templates. Now there are several of these available for free and it is entirely up to you how to use them. There are absolutely fantastic free templates available on Canva, Adobe Spark and a brand new graphic design app I was recently introduced to, this is www.designwizard.com. The simplicity of this website is absolutely wonderful. Where Design Wizard wins is the lack of overwhelm. There is something as too much choice right? This website is easy to use and super quick in helping you create content that stands out. If you have not seen this already, give it a go!A fifth way is to add icons to your images to add an extra bit of interest. Say you are running a series of posts for a specific purpose and you would like each to be coordinated. You can choose an icon, which is a simple vector image that you can resize to add to your post or banner. A vector image is something you can resize without losing the quality - so it will not become pixilated if you have to increase the size of your icon. There are a million and one of these icons available on pretty much every single graphic design app there is. So, for instance, you can search for a Frame in the search bar in Adobe Spark Post and you will see hundreds of picture frame icons appear. If you were trying to highlight a particular product, you could then plonk your image inside a pretty frame - so it will stand out from the rest of your feed. Its a fun way to add interest to whatever it is that you are doing.So there you have it, five different ways of introducing graphic design, with zero background in graphic design - using these tools will help you create richer content for your audience and is especially useful if you want to communicate specific ideas. A picture does tell a story, but sometimes, it needs a nudge! To recap, the five ways are:1. A simple white or coloured frame around your image2. Adding text to your images3. Using gifs or gifs4. Using pre-fab templates5. Using icons to add interestIf you liked this podcast, please take a moment to give me a review.

Facebook Sammelt Daten - Lyrics Manche Menschen verurteilen Facebook's Datenpolitik, während sie sich im WhatsApp-Status ausziehn. Eschofieren sich energisch über Zuckerberg, um parallel zu Instagram zu fliehn. Aber Leute wisst ihr nicht, dass der Mark "Datenkrake" bei Facebook, WhatsApp und Insta ist? Die Bemühung ist umsonst! Totaler Griff ins Klo. Zuckerberg der kriegt euch. Auf'm Smartphone sowieso. Komm schon, schalt das Ding aus. Mach dein iPhone einfach hin. Facebook sammelt Daten. Überraschung, das' ja 'n Ding. Manche Menschen posaunen ihr Privatleben hinaus und sind dann hinterher betroffen. Wenn der Personalchef sagt: "du ich hab gehört, du warst gar nicht krank, sondern besoffen. Geht dein Leben in die Brüche, weil ein Live-Mitschnitt belegt, dass du gar nicht in der Spätschicht warst, sondern in der Discothek! Klar, dann ist Facebook schuld. Und schon wiedermal totaler Griff ins Klo. Zuckerberg verfolgt dich, auf'm Smartphone sowieso. Yeah! Komm schon, schalt dein Phone aus. Lösch' die Apps von A bis Z. Und dann hör endlich auf zu jammern, sonst wird das peinlich. Das wär nett. Wow! Facebook sammelt Daten. Wer hätte das gedacht? Facebook sammelt Daten. Hat man dir das nicht gesagt? Legst du kostenlos ein Konto an, dann is' doch klar, dass du nicht weißt. Dass man sich um deine Daten, um dein Bewegungsprofil reißt. Und natürlich wusstest du auch nicht - das war'n die AGB, die du da grad bestätigt hast. Ignoranz tut halt manchmal weh. Aber dann is' doch bitteschön nicht Facebook schuld. Doch schon wiedermal behauptest du das so. Zuckerberg der stalkt dich auf'm Smartphone sowieso. Wow! Komm schon, schalt das Ding aus und mach dein Galaxy endlich hin. Denn Facebook sammelt Daten. Überraschung, das' ja 'n Ding. Wow! Facebook sammelt Daten. Überraschung, das' ja 'n Ding. *** Instagram Geschichte Es war einmal Frodo. [Name von der Redaktion, also von mir, geändert] Frodo kommentiert meinen Facebook Post und teilt mir mit, dass er den Teufel tut - und garantiert nicht meiner App-Empfehlung folgen wird. Weil erstens kann die App gar nicht soooo toll sein, weil bis dato nur für iPhone verfügbar und zweitens (Achtung shocking!) man muss ein kostenfreies Konto anlegen, um alle Features nutzen zu können. Und Frodo ist echt nicht von gestern! Er weiß genau was es heißt, ein kostenloses Konto für eine App zu eröffnen. Da muss man nämlich Daten eingeben. Bääm! Anschließend kotzt er mir virtuell per Emoji auf die geputzten Halbschuhe. An alle Frodos da draußen. Wenn ihr mir auf Facebook - ich wiederhole - Facebook - schreibt, dass ihr keiner kostenlosen App eure Daten anvertraut, dann stoppt doch mal für nen Moment den Krach in eurem Kopf und meldet euch von allen Zuckerberg Properties ab. Insta und WhatsApp eingeschlossen. #doitnow Noch jemand da jetzt? Hey! Schön dass ihr so lange drangeblieben seid! Total mutig. Als Belohnung gibt’s jetzt den Superduper-App-Tipp! ADOBE SPARK POST. Damit erstellt ihr Socialmedia Posts wie ein Grafiker. Mit ein paar Fingertipps. Funktioniert sehr gut. Inkl. Animationen und tonnenweise Vorlagen + freie Stock-Fotos dazu. Mittlerweile auch für #android (also muss die App ja genial sein) Ach ja! Ich bekomme kein Geld von Zuckerberg oder Adobe. Die kennen mich gar nicht. Trotzdem finde ich einige ihrer Apps echt gelungen. Manche auch richtig schlecht. Vielleicht haben sie mir deswegen noch nix überwiesen. Aber gut. Das war‘s für heute. Warum seid ihr eigentlich in der gefährlichen Welt des Zuckerbergs unterwegs? Schreibt mal. Wäre doch fein, wenn wir uns App und zu gegenseitig lesen.

Ich bin eine Null!  Zumindest, was Photoshop oder sonstige Bildbearbeitung angeht. Aber zum Glück gibt es Apps, die so gut sind, dass sie auch absoluten Grafik-Noobs wie mir die Arbeit abnehmen. Angefangen habe ich, wie viele andere wohl auch, mit dem grenzgenialen Tools Canva. Keine Frage eines der durchdachtesten und besten Tools, die es da draußen gibt. Es gibt aber eines, dass ich noch etwas besser finde, aber vergleichsweise unbekannt ist: Adobe Spark Post!  Was ich daran so großartig finde?! Die Ergebnisse sind ein My schöner als bei Canva (meine subjektive Meinung) und das "re-sizen" in ein neues Bildformat ist in der kostenfreien Variante schon mit drin. Im Gegensatz zu Canva. In dieser Folge bekommst du aber noch ein paar weitere Features, die mir an Adobe Spark Post gefallen und dafür sorgen, dass ich seit über einem Jahr Canva nicht mehr angefasst habe.  ACHTUNG: Hol dir hier direkt den Zugang zum kostenfreien Mitgliederbereich dieses Podcasts.

A volte può essere utile scambiarsi degli screenshot del cellulare con delle annotazioni sopra.Oggi vi parlo di Annotable, una app per iOS che serve per annotare le foto. Quindi evidenziarne alcuni punti, scriverci sopra e altre azioni simili. Il ragazzo che ha creato questa app si è chiaramente ispirato a Skitch, una applicazione che io amo molto - e che serviva sempre ad annotare le immagini - che purtroppo però è stata comprata da Evernote nel 2011, che ne ha integrato le funzionalità nel proprio web clipper e nel 2015 poi l’ha parzialmente uccisa. Dico parzialmente perché Evernote ha interrotto il supporto e lo sviluppo di Skitch per iOS, Android e Windows mentre continua a portare avanti la app per macOS.Torniamo ad Annotable, perché è utile una app del genere?A mio avviso le possibilità sono molte. Vi faccio un esempio reale. Un paio di giorni fa mi sono accorta che le Twitter card con l’immagine di anteprima grande hanno un problema di ritaglio dell’immagine che prima non avevano. Ho pensato di parlarne subito con Donna Moritz di Socially Sorted che è una grandissima esperta di visual content e a cui ho accesso diretto attraverso un gruppo privato Facebook. Beh, spiegarle un problema del genere a parole non è esattamente semplice, quindi ho fatto alcuni screenshot a cui ho aggiunto del testo, dei riquadri e delle frecce per evidenziare cosa stavo segnalando. Ecco, un’immagine rende tutto più semplice e immediato. E per fosse curioso riguardo la questione di Twitter, Donna mi ha risposto che aveva notato anche lei il problema e che il suo tecnico sta indagando.Continua su:http://www.MERITA.BIZ/88 ### NOTE DELLA PUNTATA ###Maggiori informazioni sulla app si possono avere sul sito ufficiale di Annotable.Potete scaricare Adobe Spark Post dall’iTunes Store (per l'iPhone e per l'iPad).Sistemi supportati: iOS.Prezzo: gratuito più strumenti a pagamento che possono essere acquistati singolarmente, a 1,99€ ciascuno, oppure in bundle a 9,99€.### PODCAST ###HTTP://www.MERITA.BIZ/PODCAST Sottoscrivi il podcast su: iTunes: http://j.mp/MERITA-ITUNES Stitcher:http://j.mp/MERITA-STITCHER Spreaker:http://j.mp/MERITA-SPREAKER Soundcloud:http://j.mp/MERITA-SOUNDCLOUD ##### WWW.MERITA.BIZ #####

Oggi vi parlo di Spark Post, che è sostanzialmente una typography app, quindi serve a mettere testo su immagini e che potete usare sia in mobilità sui vostri dispositivi iOS sia da computer attraverso la versione web. L’anno scorso si vociferava di un possibile arrivo su Android, ma non ho trovato riscontri quindi non so dirvi se la app è effettivamente in via di sviluppo o meno.E come funziona?Puoi partire da zero oppure modificare uno dei tanti template esistenti, funzione che si chiama Remix. Lo sfondo può essere una tua foto, che hai già o da scattare direttamente dalla app, una tinta unita oppure un’immagine scelta nella libreria public domain integrata nella app. Se decidi di usare un’immagine poi potrai modificarla con dei filtri.Puoi usare la dimensione originale dell’immagine oppure scegliere fra alcuni formati preimpostati, per esempio con dimensioni adatte ai vari social – sia per post che per cover – o con formati generici come 4:3, 16:9 e quadrato.Poi hai la possibilità di scegliere una palette di colori. La prima che ti viene proposta è estratta dall’immagine che decidi elaborare, ma puoi selezionarne un’altra tra quelle a disposizione.Il testo ha tre attributi modificabili. Uno naturalmente è il font, la scelta è un po’ limitata ma non è male nel complesso. La seconda opzione di modifica si chiama “shape” (forma) e in sostanza inserisce una forma geometrica dietro il testo per renderlo più leggibile o abbellirlo. La terza opzione è l’allineamento che, oltre ai classici destra, sinistra e centro, ti permette di distribuire al meglio il testo all’interno di un box predefinito gestendo automaticamente la dimensione del font e la spaziatura fra le lettere.Per aiutarti nel posizionamento del testo ci sono delle guide magnetiche a scomparsa che indicano il centro dell’immagine oppure aiutano ad allineare diversi elementi di testo.Mentre ci possono essere più livelli di testo, l’immagine è solo quella di sfondo, quindi non c’è modo di caricare un logo.Continua su:http://www.MERITA.BIZ/84 ### NOTE DELLA PUNTATA ###Maggiori informazioni sulla app si possono avere sul sito ufficiale di Adobe Spark Post.Potete scaricare Adobe Spark Post dall’iTunes Store.Sistemi supportati: iOS, web.Prezzo: gratuito.### PODCAST ###HTTP://www.MERITA.BIZ/PODCAST Sottoscrivi il podcast su: iTunes: http://j.mp/MERITA-ITUNES Stitcher:http://j.mp/MERITA-STITCHER Spreaker:http://j.mp/MERITA-SPREAKER Soundcloud:http://j.mp/MERITA-SOUNDCLOUD ##### WWW.MERITA.BIZ #####
