Friday 5: Misc. Sites

The Friday 5 Hi Subscribers, Here's a quick list of sites that I think are worth checking out. Again, I learned about most of these during the Apple Distinguished Educator Institute last week. The Friday 5 is going to continue in its present form, but I'm also going to be sending out the list via Yahoo! Groups.

If you are interested in joining the Yahoo Group for the Friday 5, please visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/friday5/.
