PHOTO PEACH

A fun site to use - Photo Peach (for educators - free).
I found it by following another teacher blog
that had a great slide show
to help students learn
the differences between circles and spheres.

I signed up quickly, downloaded a few pictures
and immediately made a slideshow.
I would like to spend more time with it.

How would you use this site?

A REPLY to ANONYMOUS.. my reader

The power of the internet is amazing. 
How far reaching it is!

I need to explore all the aspects of this blog.

I do not know how to respond to a reader's comment.

Of course this reader posted the comment as anonymous,
so that makes it impossible, I guess.

This comment was regarding a long ago post
regarding my family reunion held in late July 2010.
This reader, knew someone in the family who had passed away.
A childhood friend.

I really wanted to answer that person making a comment,
but as anonymous, I could not.

It sounds like everything he/she mentioned
points to my husband's cousin being the person they knew.

I do have information on the family.
At this point, both the parents have passed away
and there is a brother alive and an adopted younger sister
that I can get into contact with if the viewer wants more information.

We don't want to lose that power!
Be sure to fight for the internet to stay "free."
See my most recent post if you missed it.

POWER OF THE INTERNET...

The power of the internet is amazing. 
How far reaching it is!


We don't want to lose that power!

I have recently been listening to comments from several persons
who know much more than I do about the internet.

They are fighting and asking us all to fight for the
DEFEAT of the  PIPA/SOPA  acts 
that Congress is trying to push through 
on behalf of the broadcast media.

Please view the following TED talks for more information.




I just love listening to TED talks.


The power of the internet.... 
it's amazing!
Do your part.
