S3 Tool Review

I will make a review on Susumu's tool Worldmapper.

To use this social software, all you need to know is where to type in the type of world map you would like to look for; it is very easy. This software is extremely interesting because there are so many different kinds of maps. It is useful when writing a report or making a presentation, and because it uses vivid colors, it goes into the audiences eyes and creates a large impact. Not only is it useful for schoolwork, it is entertaining to use during free time as well. Moreover, it can be used academically and non-academically. It is also useful because you do not need to sign up for it; anyone can look for a map at any time without entering an email or password or typing in personal information.

Nov. 6: S3 Tool Review

I will make a review on Yukie's tool Gradefix.

There are no particular skills needed in order to use this tool; it is fairly easy if you simply follow the directions. Gradefix allows people to finish assignments and tasks on time by reminding them in advance and apparently it is known to raise the grade of students. Of course people need to actually do the work in order to have good results. People who do not like to hold schedule books all the time or people who always forget due dates would find Gradefix to be extremely convenient. I think it would be the most convenient if we were able to sign up with our cellular phone addresses and if the due date reminder mails would come to our cellular phones. As said above, many business people may stop carrying paper schedule books and use these mechanical technologies instead, which would have an enormous effect on the digital industry.
