Week 5, little late

Warm weather has arrived, and I'm finding it harder to do school work. Getting ready to go on vacation next week, so I should really be trying to get ahead, ha.
Putting an image on my blog from an image generator was easy, but I wanted it to be on the side of my blog, and it got cut off. I tried making it smaller, but that didn't help. It's there though!!
My mind is boggled by the Web 2.0 awards list. It is awesome that there are sites that organize everything on the web. I thought you had to use search engines like Google to find what you're looking for, but that can sometimes be frustrating and sort of needle-in-haystack like.
I hope to be using Rollyo, del.icio.us, backpack to be more organized in my teaching. Finding good websites for math, and saving them in one place = huge time saver.
I'll have to look at urbanspoon, because it has my name in it and last.fm because I love music, but usually not mainstream stuff. Last, and totally least, hairmixer, because that's just silly.
Ok, this was fun.

  1. Nice exploration, Beth. Love you playlist, too! I wish I had an easy answer for the sizing problem for your image chef image. You can go to flickr and upload it there and it offers you the option of downloading it back icon size or very small. That may do the trick.

  2. Beth, looks like I'm later than you for week 5. Anyway, I feel the same way you do about the web 2.0 awards list. I've always used a search engine as well, but now I'll know better. Hope you're enjoying your vacation!
