AR SPOT is an augmented-reality authoring environment for children. An extension of MIT's Scratch project, this environment allows children to create experiences that mix real and virtual elements. Children can display virtual objects on a real-world scene observed through a video camera, and they can control the virtual world through interactions between physical objects. This project aims to expand the range of creative experiences for young authors, by presenting AR technology in ways appropriate for this audience. In this process, we investigate how young children conceptualize augmented reality experiences, and shape the authoring environment according to this knowledge.

" About QuickScreenShare.com: QuickScreenShare.com is the simplest way to share screens with anybody: No registration required and completely free. Nothing to install for sharer or sharee (assuming you have Java). Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Even lets you remotely control mouse and keyboard! This free service is a side project from the creators of Screencast-O-Matic.com and is still in BETA. We use it extensively for remote user support and collaboration.

We first featured Cooliris nearly three years ago, when it was still called PicLens. This fantastic free browser plugin offers an image search interface like no other. It works on the expected image search platforms - Google, Flickr, etc. - but we particularly like its use on Facebook, where the native image browsing is lacking at best.
