Hoot.me Turns Facebook into “Studybook”, Helping Students Finish Their Homework and Projects
No matter how revolutionary social networks are, lots of moms and dads think that all that chatting, video uploading and picture posting is a waste of time. Can you imagine a mom saying Enough is enough! Go to your room, log in to Facebook and do your homework? Trust us, with Hoot.me they’ll start.
Facebook Is Your Homework Now
Hoot.me is a Facebook application that allows students to switch their Facebook into study mode. Study mode means that students are able to see what their friends are working on and collaborate inside of Facebook. For example, if a student is working on calculus homework, Hoot.me lets the student see all of his or her friends that are also doing their calculus.
He or she can then collaborate from within Facebook using video conferencing and smart chat. Smart chat allows typed math equations to be automatically reformatted to look the way they should.
What Are You Working On? Hoot It And Get Some Help!
If you’re working on your homework or assignment and you need some help, it’s easy to get it with Hoot.me. All you need to do is install the app on Facebook, put a Hoot status like javascript, market testing, domain registration etc. and/or check out what your friends are up to.
There are also status recommendations which will make your life much easier. Another useful feature is integrated search which allows you to look for specific problems, essays, papers you are interested in (or simply have to do ;)) and consequently befriend people with similar interestes. Hoot.me truly leverages the social network to make it a knowledge network.
