  • “You know the person your going to meet is somewhere close in the building preparing for you, maybe by looking you up on Facebook or Googling your name, possibly reading an embarrassing entry about you on your mom's blog or being surprised to not find you on LinkedIn,” said Hanaike.
  • “I can't just be myself where and when I want because anything I do has the potential to end up on some site somewhere where anyone can look at it and judge. I feel like I need to water down who I am.”

  • A wildly popular iPhone app that recently became available on Android phones, Instagram lets people apply filters to photos they shoot so that some appear as if they've been taken in the 1970s or on Polaroid cameras.

  • Digital dating is now the second most common way that couples get together, after meeting through friends.
  • Once potential partners meet, in other words, other characteristics take precedence over the ones they thought were important.
  • the best prognosticators of how people will get along come from the encounters between them. In other words, it’s hard to tell whether Jim and Sue will be happy together simply by comparing a list of their preferences, perspectives and personality traits before they meet. Stronger predictors of possible romance include the tenor of their conversations, the subject of their discussions, or what they choose to do together.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • the sheer number of candidates that some sites provide their love-seeking singles — which can range from dozens to hundreds — can actually undermine the process of finding a suitable mate. The fact that candidates are screened via their profiles already sets up a judgmental, “shopping” mentality that can lead people to objectify their potential partners.
  • “Online dating sites have a vested interest in your failure. If you succeed, the site loses two paying customers.”
  • A few weeks of email and photo exchanging serves to enhance people’s attraction when they finally meet, researchers found, but when the correspondence goes on too long — for six weeks — it skews people’s expectations and ends up lowering their attraction upon meeting.

    Exactly what it sounds like. Plus it was named "Best resource sharing blog" in 2008 by Edublog, so apparently it's pretty cool.

    I found this blog under the list of Edublog award winners and thought it was really interesting. It has posts everyday for new ideas for using technology in the classroom. For example, for today there is a post about Gapminder, a type of graphing technology that can be used for lesson plans, quizes, and animations. I also really like this blog because it gives links to each application and then has a whole section on how it can be realistically applied in the classroom.

    Unfortunately we won't always have access to BYU's amazing resources. This blog gives ideas for ways to use technology in the classroom free of charge! Woohoo!

  • DINOSAUR TRAIN embraces and celebrates the fascination that preschoolers have with both dinosaurs and trains. The series encourages basic scientific thinking skills as the audience learns about life science, natural history and paleontology. Each of the 40 half-hour episodes features Buddy, an adorable preschool age Tyrannosaurus Rex, and his adoptive Pteranodon family as they board the DINOSAUR TRAIN and embark on whimsical voyages through prehistoric jungles, swamps, volcanoes and oceans. The episodes include two 11-minute animated stories, along with brief live action segments hosted by renowned paleontologist Dr. Scott Sampson, that unearth basic concepts in life science, natural history and paleontology.
