Thing #7

Although I "Google" every day, I enjoyed exploring the Google tools that are new to me. The two I chose to use are Google Alert and Picasa Web Album.

I have set up Google Alerts for two topics for the summer, and I can see excellent possibilities for gathering unit information during the school year.

I was especially interested in Picasa Web Album. My niece is vacationing in England now, and she is posting her trip pictures daily for her family and friends. It's a fantastic way for us to enjoy her trip with her now rather than later. I am anxious to transfer all of my family's vacation pictures in an organized way to my own Picasa album.
