Technorati

When examining the technorati site I found differences in what i would find depending on where I looked for the inforamtion. This was great because it made me feel as though I could put in almost anything and still find what I was looking for.
What I found interesting about the popular page was that it almost resembled the bloglines page that I had set up for myself. I could be wrong this is all new to me, but I wonder if I could use this page instead of bloglines to find information on the same information. I realize that bloglines brings the information to me from one location, but this site also seems to have many of these same sites marked and it would be just as easy to click a link. Maybe I am wrong, I am still learning as I said but I will figure it all out soon.

YouTube video

I love youtube! I can watch videos here all day. I don't think that there is really anything I don't like about this site. I guess having to search through videos that aren't as pertinent can be annoying but sometimes interesting. At any rate I already use this in my class, I frequently show video clips to my classes that relate to what I am teaching at the time.
I chose a video on the new P.E. because I thought it was relavent to this class and the direction that P.E. seems to be going more and more lately. Technology is moving into every aspect of our lives, why not physical education as well?

del.icio.us

I found del.icio.us to be a useful tool, not one that am dying to set up, but useful none the least. I can see myself using this more for bookmarking than anything else (I really don't like not having my home bookmarks and work bookmarks available when I want them). I definetly see the potential of this tool for research assistance...for teaching...I think I would need to learn more to use it for teaching. Maybe in the future I will incorporate this into my teaching, for now, I am glad I was exposed to this.
