Wha hoo! I'm like a kid in a candy store! Suddenly I have even more toys to play with! I'm working on setting up a custom search engine. I think that ability would come in very useful in a classroom setting.
I also set up an evernote account and downloaded the phone app to my cell phone. I've played around a little with it. I think I should play around more with it on my laptop and then learn the phone app. It's easier to learn it on the larger format. Maybe I could use the voice note option to record my grocery list. I always seem to leave my list at home. Pathetic I know, but we all have our excentricities.
I find myself becoming more confident in learning how to find web based tools. For instance I need to edit a PDF file, but don't have Adobe Editor. I did a search for on-line PDF editors and found several. I've decided to try PDF Hammer to see how it works.

I just wanted to say welcome to the group. I agree with you, I absolutely love getting new tools to use in class and in my own life every week in class. Your post has inspired me to download evernote to my iphone.
jraddurangoHi Jenny, Welcome to the group. As I look through your blog I see that you have been busy. I look forward to some of the things you've been learning. I l have not heard of evernote and find that interesting. I think I'll look into that. As for recording lists. That is a great idea. As my sometimer's kicks in I really could use the help.
Evernote is truly a great tool - the issue for me is changing my habits to ensure it is integrated.
I think you'll find over time Web 2.0 tools doing much of what we do in a desktop application. Keep up the good work!
