We are in the midst of a March blizzard so I thought this would be a good day to work on my Things. Let me say, I've learned something very important today: do not attempt to bake cookies while working on the Things. I burned most of them! Another thing I learned today: don't believe the weather widget - it says light snow and 6mph winds for Fisher - what a joke!
Google tools are great. I have the calendar on my iGoogle homepage and have added things like birthdays, anniversaries, team schedules, and some important school dates. I signed up for Google Alerts - I want to know anything about the author, Spring Warren (she wrote her first novel, Turpentine, last year - it's wonderful and I recommend it to all of you). I also signed up for a number of alerts at Alerts.com. I'm hoping my e-mail account doesn't go into overload.
Google Sites is a cool tool, not unlike PBwiki - could be very useful for a school project or adding info to my school library home page. And I was delighted to learn about Goog-411 - there have been many times when I could have used that tool (if only I'd known).
