Interesting use for personal users of Mac/iOS; potential for school use as well?  Cards to shut-ins, etc.

Might be useful if anyone has a personal Kindle or has a few in the classroom.

Mac only. Haven't tried it personally but read some great reviews. On sale for $9.99 currently.

Worth looking at if you use these tools.  I personally prefer the always free Microsoft Security Essentials for my own use.

Books for "Shallow" brains "The typical person doesn't have entire weekends anymore to spend reading a book. But that doesn't mean we don't want to learn. That's why we've created FRAMES-short yet deep, digestible reads on the top issues facing Christians in today's complex culture."

Shared by Cindy Krueger I've been following Jenn's Trends on Facebook for social media hints and tips. I'm sharing her recent blog post about protecting and recovering hacked social media accounts. One item of note is the LogDog tool to help protect your accounts. This topic is of special concern because I know a couple people with high profile accounts that have been hacked recently. Fortunately each was able to work with the social media company to get the account restored. Maybe less of a concern for churches and schools that have in person contact with followers but still something people will want to avoid if possible.

An interesting look at our stuff from the Table ... "Even though the average size of our homes and personal garages have doubled over the last 50 years and the average number in each house has declined from 4.5 in 1916 to 2.6 today."

LastPass has 90 days to fix the potential exploit before ProjectZero releases the exploit to the public. The Mac Geek Gab Podcast recommends switching password managers if LastPass has not "patched the hole" in half the time (May 1). I personally have LP on all my devices, having paid money for the mobile version. 1Password seems to have a stronger reputation from the podcasts and bloggers I follow, but the desktop app was much more expensive than LastPass. Perhaps I'm getting what I've paid for. :(

Thanks for this article Emile. It looks like LastPass has implemented a fix, announced last Friday. https://blog.lastpass.com/2017/03/security-update-for-the-lastpass-extension.html/

Panoramic shots from inside the National Museum of Natural History - almost as good as being there in person :)

Called a "personal internet desktop", Symbaloo is a way to graphically show your bookmarks. Del.icio.us bookmarks can be linked with this service - I see a lot of good uses, especially for lower grades if this were set as the home page of an Internet browser.

How to use Google Docs to create custom flash cards. Use with any Internet-enabled device. Sweet!

Lots of applications for school, catechism, personal study, foreign language...the applications are endless! Very cool.

Free streaming music seems to have a large selection
