Just Notes and Links

Hello, everyone.

Just a reminder that if you're running into any consistent tech problems in the laptop rooms, you should let me know.

And an exhortation: Share ideas and solutions with each other! The thing that's great about having so many laptops in circulation now is that we have so many brilliant minds working on how to use them.

Some links of interest:

* A tool I'll add to the help site soon, worth a look: Snipshot, for online photo editing.

* And here's a rundown of all the online photo sharing sites (http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/web_photo_sharing_faceoff.php), in case any of you are looking for interesting ways for students to work with photos.

* Some funny (or mildly amusing, at least) parodies of the recent Mac vs. PC ads that Apple's been running. Relevant because this one's about Tablet PCs. (The one about games and jobs is pretty funny, too, and it sets up the joke at the end of the Tablet PC one.) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9Krgk4Mlps&mode=related&search=)

* And just to show I love the Macs, too, here's Todos (http://www.dbachrach.com/opensoft/index.php?page=Todos), which gives Macs a kind of super dock, showing all their applications at once. I just tried it. It's neat.

All for now,

Fred
