I explored Blurtopia and Copy.  Blurtopia seems a lot like an interest website more than a learning website.  It allows people to ask questions about whatever is on their mind to everyone across the world that uses this website.  It would be important to remember that some things are socially acceptable in some cultures but not acceptable in others when asking questions and opinions on clothes.  The website could be useful in giving users ideas of things they may like to try in the future.  I could not see this being a useful tool for school so I looked at another site/tool to see if it would be useful for school or the library.

Copy seemed to be a useful site to store documents and pictures.  The user is also able to share documents, pictures, and anything else he or she downloads to the website.  They are also able to put their own protection on the website so only people they want to look at the web page can see it.  This can be useful for students to start working on Internet and writing assignments in the classroom or library and be able to pick up where they left off once they get home by putting it on this website.  Users are able to store 15GB for free.
