Google to the 100th Power!



It's all about me! Customization rocks with all these value-added Google features! I am most impressed with:

  • viewing already created power point presentations on any given topic
  • Google Video for easy locating and uploading of must-see episodes of favorite series--hooray for this season's episodes of Mad Men which won't be available on DVD until July!
  • igoogle: what an improved welcome screen! I love music and now I am getting updates of upcoming concerts in our area, not to mention other categories of arts & entertainment...
  • Discover Buried Treasure: educator posters on google books are way cool!
  • Google Scholar: ditto above!

So now the only trick left is to keep using some of these new discoveries...therein lies the rub....

Saturday Next...

I enjoyed reading the blog post by catsfin! funny that it is Saturday next and I am playing catch up with many of the features Cat spoke of. Impressive to say the least a la Google Books!! It is awesome! So easy to use AND searchable by the Table of Contents! Jump right to the poem or chapter you need--Wow! Love it...
