Evidence of Research into multimedia presentation Tools

NOTA

Before I proceed in answering the multiple questions for this site I would firstly like to comment on how easy, quick and convenient it is to create an account with this site. All it takes is a username, an email and a password. Once you have done that your considered a member :) !

Now to answer the questions needed to be done:

Versatility 
 This website over all is very excellent with the media that can be used. It provides a variety of choice in media which can be used. This includes things such as images, these can be uploaded through either providing a URL or through simply uploading a picture which is already stored in a hardrive. As you can see below it is very simple and easy to figure out how and where you can upload a picture.  These bar can simply be found as a toolbar on the side of your account in order for you to upload a file :)

As well as this another media which can be used is music, this can also be uploaded in the same way with ease like this. Although it does take a while to do so, this can still be done. However I would still consider this a negative aspect of this site because as a user I would prefer a website which allows for work to be uploaded and done quickly.
                       
                                                 

Here is an overall view of all the inserted media's on the page and the various effects you can have on it, from the information it can be concluded how easy it can be to add various components to this page:

Ease of use
This website is extremely easy to use as it allows quick acess to users and an excellent design which makes it simple for a new member to use the site. Here is an example of how an user can edit their own profile with ease when they first become a member:

As you can see, this can be seen with ease on the left hand corner of the site. Hence making this website so friendly and  easy use for new users of the system.

To get into more detail ,  the toolbar located on the right as you can see, is located in such a position on the site which makes it easy for the user to easily edit and compose new work.

Here is a zoomed picture of the section which depicts how a user can easily add new pages to their  work.

As you can see this picture is able to reveal  how effortless it is to add new pages and

compose new work :)!

Here is another close up image, of a page that has been created by me. From this image you can see that another plus point of pages on this website is that the date and time of composition can be viewed by the viewer themself and the user. As well as any comments made.

Also this website is quite excellent for users as it allows them to be able to share/promote their ideas onto another website. This can simply done through the share button which gives access to many uploading facilities as seen below.

However to top it up! If a new/existing user needs help then this can easily be done through going onto the help section which provides answers to many questions. As well  as this users are even given the oppurtunity to be educated about what NOTA really is, are given contact information and are even provided with a quick!

Thus making evident how this website is a great place for users due to the many elements it has to offer as well as the great ease of using these facilities.
Collaboration 
Due to its ease of use I was able to find out through the help section that this website can be accessed by more than one person at the same time.  In fact here is a picture of the response I found :  

As you can see from this, this website also allows for multiple users to use it at the same time. Not only that but this page allows users to chat to their family and friends at any time they like due to its instant updates. All you have to do, to accomplish this is simply click "Add Editors".  Therefore making evident how collaboration can be done ;)!
