Cool Cat Teacher

I was doing some research today and I came across a great blog. The title of the blog caught my eye first...Cool Cat Teacher. So I visited the blog and immediately a post titled "10 Ways to Be a Terrible Teacher" piqued my interest. Cool Cat Teacher is a self-professed "Geek" and her blog is loaded with numerous technology resources for teachers. She has been a teacher for many years and has a plethora of accolades as a professional. Check out her blog and let me know what you think!  www.coolcatteacher.blogspot.com

Google+ vs. Facebook: See How They Compare

Anyone ever heard of Google+? Apparently, it is a fairly new social networking site (launched June of 2011). There is an article in PC World which does a comparison between Google+ and Facebook. They outline some of the +'s (pun intended!) as follows: 

• Integration with all the other Google sites, such as Gmail, Docs, Search, etc.
• Better Mobile App for Android Users
• Easier to find stuff to share (through a search engine feature known as Sparks)
• Google is a better Steward of Your Personal Data
• Better Photo Tagging (When you tag someone you see this note: Adding this tag will notify the person you have tagged.)

They certainly make it sound enticing to switch from Facebook, but the most compelling reason not to switch would be: Who would my "friends" be?!

I definitely think it deserves a "look-see". Check out the following article

Task 018 Denise's Illustrated Poster

This is a picture I took in Mazatlan, Mexico in 2010. It inspired me to take a "towel folding" class. Unfortunately, my "towel art" did not turn out so well.
