"Personal Learning Networks are becoming a popular way to learn from other educators. But how do you get started in creating a personal learning network, or PLN? I've put together a quick list of 3 resources that educators are using to build PLNs:"

"Makewaves is an amazing community of thousands of schools creating, sharing and learning together"

"The Looking Glass: New Perspectives on Children's Books is an electronic journal about children's literature. The site was launched April 2, 1997 -- International Children's Book Day. As our name suggests, we combine an interest in the traditional with an eye to the modern. Our readers and contributors are academics, librarians, teachers, parents and anyone else fascinated by the world of children's literature. This journal is published by a small group of volunteers."

If you're getting started with Edmodo, this is a great resource for the first steps.

"Diigo is one of my core information management tools. Some people call it a social bookmarking service, but it is far more than that."

FatURL is a handy little tool to use when you need to share a group of links to someone. To share a group of links through FatURL just copy and paste or type URLs into the bundle box. You can add comments to each link. After creating your bundle hit the share button to send it.

"A search to recover the very first web page has unearthed a relic from 1991. The page turned up after Cern launched a public appeal for files, hardware and software from the web's earliest days. The original page is missing because the web's creators did not preserve the early work they did on what has become a historic document. Unfortunately, other potential finds from the same era on that old computer remain hidden because the password for it has been forgotten."

" Real time updating, a powerful search tool, and easily movable columns make it the perfect tool for journalists and producers monitoring a number of different stories across the day.​ TweetDeck works by sorting the' noise' into manageable streams, based around searches, lists and profiles."

"This feature used to be an experiment, but now it should be publicly available. Unfortunately, Google shows results for too many different queries and not all of them are useful. Some of Google's suggestions remove important keywords from the query and that's a mistake. For example, removing "gingerbread" from [gingerbread install chrome browser manually] returns results related to the desktop Chrome. Maybe Google could automatically detect nonessential keywords and show results that don't include them instead of cluttering the list of results with so many options. "

"The above video by Nicole Gleason shows one student explaining the benefits of Evernote, how she's using it to improve fluency, language learning, keeping track of her studies, and leveraging all the iPad and Evernote have to offer. It's impressive and my hat's off to Mrs. Gleason (check out her other videos here!) and this video."
