Learning about Web 2.0
Techlearning.com and the Election
This article interested me because the election is coming in the fall, and even though I am in technology now, I was a social studies teacher for the previous 4 years. I am interested in finding ways to incorporate technology into a school wide election unit in the fall. This feed gave me more interesting sites to visit and gather information to prepare for the big event.

This interest me because the students can use this to orally blog as well.
