Great Links for Educators

I have spent several years book marking sites using various tools. I started with Backflip, used that for quite awhile, then changed to Delicious and then to Diigo which I am currently using. I loved each one of them and still do. I have tried a few others also but none I liked as much as these three. However, there is so much out there and I am saving so many sites that sometimes I find something I really think is great and I lose it. Yes I have lists and I am trying to tag carefully but I still cannot always find what I want and I often forget about something really great so don't even know to go looking for it. I started sending some links to my blog when I really wanted to remember them but realized that was not quite what I wanted, now I have a blog all set up just for links. Now this may get to be a problem too, there are so many good resources and tools out there on the Wild Wild Web. But it is a small way to deal with a big problem! Any way that said here is a link to that blog.

Okay, this is really dumb but I had a website that I did not want to get lost in the wealth of websites I post on Diigo every day. So I was looking for a way to mark it especially so I could find it quickly. Low and behold I discover (never looked before) that I could post it to my blog as I book marked it in Diigo. I feel like an idiot, I am supposed to be the really tech literate one! Anyway I have posted two here. I think I will start a new blog for these sites so it doesn't get mixed up here but it was very cool. I now have two posts of these websites that I really want to keep in mind! Will wonders never cease here on the web. I keep trying to stay up only to find there are so many sites I have never seen and certainly don't have time to visit. It is amazing.
