From year to year, the moon never seems to change. Craters and other formations appear to be permanent now, but the moon didn't always look like this. Thanks to NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, we now have a better look at some of the moon's history. Learn more in this video!
My activity on my blog as well as on Twitter have diminished as of late. I still find an incredible amount of value/entertainment by engaging in the online discussions, I just find it harder to make time to write and send out 140 character tidbits.
Google Search has always been about finding the best results for you. Sometimes that means results from the public web, but sometimes it means your personal content or things shared with you by people you care about. These wonderful people and this rich personal content is currently missing from your search experience. Search is still limited to a universe of webpages created publicly, mostly by people you've never met. Today, we're changing that by bringing your world, rich with people and information, into search.
Fresh on the heels of adding discussions to Google presentations and the ability to edit within the Google Docs Android app, we've been hard at work on a few other new features to enhance your Google Docs experience.
All your comments--in one tidy place
We just added the discussions feature to Google drawings, and today we're making it even easier to see a log of all of the comments that have been made whether you're using drawings, documents, or presentations. Just click on the "Comments" button in the upper right corner of the editor to see a complete history of your discussions. You can reply in line, resolve or re-open comments, link directly to a comment, or change notification settings--without ever leaving the "Comments" menu.
Welcome to my wiki! Over the last few months, my students and fellow contributors have been creating some pretty interesting resources. Some are fairly developed. Others are still just kernals of an idea that need some fleshing out. Feel free to take a look around and add your ideas to this wiki. Please drop me an e-mail with your comments or suggestions at budtheteacher@gmail.com. This is currently an open wiki. Add documents; make changes; experiment. Thanks!
