LibraryThing: What to Read?

LibraryThing is a website designed to catalog your favorite books and find people with common reading interests. LibraryThing allows you to write reviews, rate, and have conversations about a specific book. It also allows you to find similar books to those that you have selected as your favorite. I don't believe this is a site that I will use regularly, however, I believe it is an interesting concept and could be useful for certain people. http://www.librarything.com/catalog.php?view=twright&shelf=list

Flickr Toys: Cool Images


I chose to use flickr toys for the online image generator assignment. I found that they had a lot of really neat things you could do with your photos. I chose to take a picture of myself and turn it into a jigsaw image. Sites like flickr toys gives you an opportunity to get creative with your photos. I'm not exactly sure how I can use it with my students, but either way it is a lot of fun to tinker with your photos.
