Digital Librarian
LibrarianaSimply a monster site! Filled with all things libraries, including that awesome Stephen Colbert clip about Wikipedia

Best of iTunes UniversityScroll down for suggestionsGreat literature for listening
File convertersAllow you to transfer from one platform or file format to anotherUseful for many reasons:- students don’t have MS Word- conflicting versions of word processors- video/audio applications
Use these…
Zamzar – provides many conversions, including YouTube for playing at schoolVixy – also allows video conversion to MP4 formatPDF to Word – Great for changing PDF files into MS Word formattingMedia-Convert – conversionsappear quickly
Think about passwords…
For school use of Web 2.0 products, you could use the same username/password combo that you originally set up for one product – it makes it easier to remember
My favorite…
RoboFormWill generate usernames and passwordsOne-touch entry into sites requiring username/password comboStores up to 10 for free
