Thing 16

For Thing 16 I chose the iGoogle start page because I use so many other google tools. I loved that you could customize the page to fit what is important to you..which for me is entertainment related since I have no life outside doing homework! (smiley) I did make it my permanent homepage as well.

I created an online calendar in a previous assignment and made it public. I have to say that I did use another google tool and it was fun to add things into the online calendar and know that I can access it from anywhere!

To-do-lists..Where do I start! My life is a walking to-do-list and to be honest I have made to-do-list and forgotten them too! So I was excited to see what things were in store for this part of the assignment. I really liked the features of Backpack since it rolled everything into one; to-do-list, itinerary, calendar features. etc. I am planning on taking a trip to Ireland next year and I am looking forward to using this tool to stay organized.

All of these tools are beneficial in there own way, whether in the classroom or for personal use. My personal favorites are almost all the Google tools, especially the translation one. I also would recommend the tool for organization if you tend to be messy or unorganized. Overall each of these tools were great to access and learn about!
