2 cool sites that I just learned about: 1. http://www.timer-tab.com/ in the chrome web store. See “Timer Tab – Create a Custom Timer to Use Online or Offline” post on Richard Byrne’s freetech4teachers site. 2. http://www.symbaloo.com/ – a visual bookmarking and sharing tool (60in60 from ISTE: http://www.symbaloo.com/mix/60in60fromiste11) <– thanks @ipadSammy
