BP4_Wiffiti

Since many of my critical friends are in Mexico I wanted to find an interactive web 2.0 tool that they can use to give me feedback and let me communicate with them in a simple way. I know there are a lot of tools that offer those characteristics but I really wanted to try something new. I finally found Wiffiti which is a wonderful Web 2.0 tool. I will use it in my ARP as a feed and communication tool. Having an account in Wiffiti  gives you the opportunity to receive instant messages from your friends and feeds from topics of your personal interests. This can be realized by personalizing your screens by adding the tags you choose. This great tool will give me the opportunity to share and collaborate with my critical friends using our computers or our cellular phones, this can be done because you receive feeds from twitter and flicker which are connected to Wiffiti. I will embed Wiffiti to my Action Research Project iWeb page.




You can make as many screens as you want, each of them can have specific tags to display and feed. Every Wiffiti screen has a unique location code. This feature gives a multi-location signage network to Wiifiti's audience. Retrieved from What is Wiffiti? - Wiffiti.


You can also personalize your screens by adding some photos. For example, this is my Education and Technology background screen picture.



Wiffiti  is an interactive tool that displays a lot of images at a time and more messages in full screen as  you can see in the next picture. So, for this and other reasons Wiffiti has also been used as a branding tool.

  1. Hi Luz,

    That sounds like a great tool! The tagging and feed features seem to fit in any type of the social environment. With so many communication tools available today, this seems like to offer quite features.

    thanks for the share!
