I sat today using Diigo to bookmark, annotate, highlight, capture pages and pictures, and do just about anything I needed to do effortlessly. Ya'll, this is straight from this educator's heart: Diigo is amazing!
Now look, my thinking about tech tools is that they have to serve everyone: teachers --administrators, students, parents -- basically all stakeholders to be truly of value. I'm into the reality of teaching which means if it is not going to improve the outcome for students academically by supporting their learning, most teachers just don't have the time to deal with it. But, I'd like to think I'm a realist and if there's a tool that makes a teacher's life easier, then preparing for lessons, classes, professional developments and, yes, our other life is easier, and that translates to a happier educator who has more time to work on supporting those students learning

Symbaloo has grown to become one of my most used tools. I am continuously blown away by its capabilities. My daughters and my husband are all now avid Symbaloo users. We've explored the Symbaloo main function as well as its Firefox Add-on that makes adding bookmarks to Symbaloo very easy but now it is time for us to explore the Social Media component to Symbaloo.
