Comments on the timeline entries


Group 1A and 1B
Dear All,
Our next task is to comment on the entries presented in the timeline. Please do that using the Vocaroo tool - it will be an audio recording. When your recording is ready, find the "+" orange button at the bottom of the page and choose the Blogger icon (remember that you must have the window with our blog open at that moment and you need to be logged in). Please type your name in the title box of your Vocaroo recording. 
The recording needs to be at least one-minute long and the deadline is next Friday - 16th March. If you have any problems, please contact me by sending a message here on our blog.
I can't wait to read your timeline stories and listen to your comments :)

Groups: 1A and 1B
I'd like you to familiarize with the Vocaroo tool.
This has got to be the easiest audio tool on the Internet.  Press the button, make your recording, press another button and send it to whoever. They have updated the interface and made it even easier to use. You can embed the recordings too.Please watch the video tutorial. We'll need this tool in the near future. You can experiment with it in your free time :)
