Thing #6

Oh my gosh! I sat down today to work on 23 things at about 11:00 and it is now 2:49. I have been playing/reading the RSS updates and trying to get a circle of wise friends lined up. Looks like I am going to need a lot more practice if I want to be able to use this tool in my busy days at school. Having said all that, it is obvious isn't it, that I enjoyed myself learning all kinds of new stuff. Let's start with the websites of the day. This has been added to my Google Reader to allow for updates from Larry Ferlazzo who has done some of the leg work for teachers by finding good websites that can be used by students and teachers. Two of those websites are Google for Teachers II - Free Guide, and Robbon Isand Soccer League (for those interested in the World Cup extras). The Weather Channel and Google news are also now part of my RSS feed to allow me to see the latest updates in news and weather (what about that Lindsey Lohan?). And, I admit it, I did spend some time playing by adding some fun things to my RSS feeder. Whew! I need to get focused and move on to Thing #7!
