Twitter Twitter
We just set up a twitter account in our technology class. This is a great way to follow people, sort of like an instant messaging account. Not something I'll stay up on right now but it has potential for the future!!

Chapter 3 of Our Text
In regards to Chapter 3 of "Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts and Other Powerful WebTools for Classrooms" by Will Richardson. This was a great chapter because it gives in-depth instructions on how to start a blog. We obviously already had the opportunity to start our own blogs in class but this will be a great reference tool down the road.
There were also some great addresses listed to popular Educators' blogs. I appreciate the fact that Richardson suggest we start small when producing a class blog. He said to start with students visiting other's blogs to get used to them. Next, he suggests we post homework assignments and links to our infant blogs to further get students used to them.
Will Richardson also reminds us that we need to use blogs ourselves if we want to effectively teach them. Practice what you preach, so to speak?

Superbowl
The Superbowl's on and my favorite part is the commercials! My favorite is the SoBe commercial where the footballs initially pretend to be ballerinas then switch to hip-hop. Next is the Heroes commercial where the stars of Heroes play football with the professionals.
My biggest question concerning half-time is this- Does Bruce Springsteen ever age? He looks great!
