On the wire – from the mac
Here are some interesting sites and materials I have found as I have been exploring with the new Mac.
1. To do list – http://www.abstractspoon.com/tdl_resources.html – this is a neat bit of free and open source software (FOSS) that allows you to maintain and manage a powerful to do list. Great tool at a nice price.
2. Bulkr – http://clipyourphotos.com/bulkr this is an adobe air tool for doing bulfk downloads from your flickr account.
3. Easy words – http://www.easywords.eu/index.php?sub=download this is a language tool designed for teaching common words in a variety of languages – the vocabulary lists are not extensive yet, but it is a project in development and well worth visiting.
4. World War 1 panaromas - http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/sets/72157608675448396/ This is a flickr stream from the Library of congress. A great resource for history and social studies – these are World War One panoramas. In Flanders fields – see below
and on a lighter note – this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTbYUd1jUc4 take a satirical look at the effect of games on our children.
