Thing 10

I signed up for a twitter account but I am afraid I don't see the usefulness of it. I can read what people are doing but I am not sure I want to do that. I could just as well use a telephone to find out what people are doing and I have a cordless phone so I can go outside and enjoy the day. I don't have to sit in front of a computer to do it!

I did find the website My Heritage useful. My sister and I have been working on the family geneology and I believe that we might be able to get some additional information from that site. We are exploring it and seeing what comes of it. This could be a very interesting site for a history class to have kids go through and determine their own geneology.

As far as science is concerned, I don't see this as a great application unless I can find a science, in particular chemistry, networking site. For my classes, I would probably use blogger where I can interact with each of my students on a regular basis.
