Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night!

Having to work until Friday made it a bit difficult to get everything done for the holiday events. It is 8:30 pm Christmas Eve night and I'm ready for tomorrow! I hope all of you have a very joyful holiday season with loved ones.

If you have time during your days off, try some of these search engines. They are new for me and I've added them to my web page: http://arlington.spps.org/lmc.html

Information Please

Live Search

Gigablast

Exalead

Polycola (searching multiple search engines side by side)
http://polycola.com

Clustering Search Engine
http://clusty.com

Alexa
http://alexa.com

Let me know what you think of these.
My goal for my blog over my winter vacation, to create a slide show.

Merry Christmas to you too!
I tried polycola.com and it's great, thanx.

and a Happy New Year! I also think polycola.com is great; it was wonderful to get that information. I like the other search engines as well. We can't be limited in our internet and web use; it goes against the whole concept.

Despite the strange name, I think polycola is great! It's a little difficult to read the results, but could definitely be a time-saver!

I've been teaching clusty and polycola to my teachers, as well. Getting over the mindset that "the way we've always been doing it is the best" is a difficult task. Isn't it funny how change is tedious for all ages. I love to hear the "a ha" when someone finds the joy in something new. That's why we're in teaching!
