Favorite Internet Places

One of my favorite places on the Internet is Google. They offer software and tools for free. There are neat things in Google Labs. And Google Earth is out of this world. Google Mars gets even better. If you want free software to manage your pictures, you want Google's Picasa. Google has made it possible to produce, and store Documents and Spreadsheets online for free. Gmail is among the best (You need a friend to invite you.) You are able to IM your friends who have Gmail while you are inside your mailbox. Blogger is also offered by Google (Did I mention free?). Blogger is a versatile tool designed to create your own weblog. At Northglade we have used Blogger for an online Art Gallery, the Principal's Newsletter, PTO Newsletter, Student Showcase, and the Technology Newsletter. A weblog can and should be used to keep people informed. Blogs can be webbed together. In the process, they become a major source of information. Google can help with our online efficiency and our ability to communicate effectively.
