Thing 18
Haven't we all sat through an interminable PowerPoint? One where you wonder what exactly the presenter was trying to communicate? Then in case you missed it, there's a handout with all the slides that weren't particularly informative duplicated in the unlikely event you might one day have a sudden need to refer to them. Trees in the forest hope for a better fate than to be used for slide show handouts. Besides the subject, I liked the sophisticated look of the presentation; mine look minor league in comparison!
I can see classroom uses in finding engaging presentations to use with students; I can also see using it as a way to share work, although since there isn't the collaborative editing capacity, it still seems that Google Docs or Zoho Show would be more beneficial for student-generated projects.

Isn't that a beautiful PowerPoint? If only they were ALL like that!
I live in Ann Arbor, so I really appreciated you comment about enjoying the band more than the football team. You seem to have it all together on your blog. Nice job!
I teach High School science in Dearborn. I'm struggling with figuring out how to add new "Things" after Thing 1 and Thing 2. I can just seem to add posts to old things.
Good luck and happy Turkey Day.
