LibraryThing
That was easy, as anyone can see I prefer non-fiction to fiction. Many of the books I read are for research purposes for my writing. LibraryThing appears to be like Shelfari. Would I be correct?
ZoHo
I created a document on ZoHo, but had trouble adding the page to my blog. Has anyone else had trouble with this task?
calcurriculum wiki
I just created a page on the calcurriculum wiki, it was fun. I can't wait to see if anyone responds to the page.
wikis
I'm going to use a wiki with our Reading Olympics Teams this year. It's difficult to get our 5th and 6th grade team members to meet at the same time, so a wiki will allow them to share information about the Reading Olympics books, and create questions for their teammates to answer as the competition draws near.

To a temporary place in time... by: Dr. Wendy Schultz
I found the article by Dr. Schultz both wonderful, exciting, enlightening and terrifying. How am I ever going to keep up with my digital natives who are avatars ahead of me?
Del.icio.us and Social Bookmarking
I like Del.icio.us for social bookmarking, but have some concerns about using this tool at the elementary level. Has anyone used Del.icio.us at the elementary level, and if so, have you experienced resistance from parents?
RSS feeds and Bloglines
I love this resource. I check various news sources during the day, Bloglines will definitely streamline this task.
