Thing #21

I love the Google tools. Google Alerts was very easy to use. I set an alert for TAKS (since we are testing this week). It delivered articles about TAKS as well as practice tests, workbooks, and flashcards - very cool. I also love Google Book Search. You can read excerpts from books and it then gives you options for where to purchase the book. I wasn't sure about children's books. When I searched for them it took me to Borders so I will need to examine it further. It was great for me personally. I also looked at the Google Timeline and it would be a great, quick, and easy way to keep up with current news.
