Sorry. One more thing.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm starting to remember some more of the things I've used. For one thing, I love my Delicious account, and I have to say that I'm glad they've taken out the random punctuation they originally placed throughout that word. (What was that all about, anyway? Random periods in the middle of a word? Nonsense!) Having a delicious account has actually prompted me to dig around and find more links I want to go back to. I'm pleased that I subscribed to freetechnologyforteachers or whatever, because I've seen lots of sites that I marked in order to visit when I've got the time. And of course, since my google reader is on my personalized igoogle page, I get lots of updates on a regular basis, and it's super convenient. Even though I haven't been good about blogging about my technological adventures, I've enjoyed reading other people's blogs as well as the few things I've subscribed to. I'm taking baby steps, and I do feel like I'm learning a lot! Yee-Haw!

A little glitch

Okay...for some reason I had trouble with my last blog entry. Obviously it got published, but here's what happened: I typed it up on my igoogle personalized page...where I can easily access my google reader as well. After typing it I tried to hit "publish," but was unable to do so. (My curser was an "I" beam instead of an arrow.) So I copied the text, and hit the "blogger" button, which took me to my entire blog. I pasted it there and sent it from that spot. Does anyone know why I couldn't do it from my igoogle page that time? Would it be because I hadn't blogged in a couple weeks? Right now I'm typing on my igoogle page, and it looks like I'll be able to send it right from here. Weird. There's probably a simple explanation. ???

Back again

Okay. It's been far too long since my last blog, so now I need to try to remember what stuff I've played around with. Hmmmmm...
I continue to be overwhelmed and impressed by the team at Google. Holy moly. I could spend hours and hours exploring all the different tools they've got available. Although I don't always find things to use in my classroom, I've been having some fun showing my husband some features that he hasn't seen. (When it comes to technology, he is WAY farther along than I am!) I thought the Google Scholar thing was pretty cool, and I was also just impressed with all the fun little tricks I can use the search bar for...like using it as a calculator and spellcheck and about a zillion other things.
