ICE2010

It has been a while since I have post on this blog. After concluding the 2010 ICE Conference, I have decided to rethink blogging and it's purpose. I need to be a "consumer" before I am a "producer".

Please check out the ICE Wiki Conference Space http://www.icewiki.info/ for all of the materials, videos, and general information about the learning that happened (and will continue to happen) post ICE2010.

How Stuff Works


I have not been to it recently, but the How Stuff Works website was always an interesting place to visit. I came across a link that took me to a quick video on how Google Earth works and noticing the address, it was to How Stuff Works. Now, it seems that HSW has a video piece to it and the look is much different. I would recommend you check out this site

Here is the direct link to the Google Earth Video

How Stuff Works website
*There seems to be a few more ads than I remember. That is the "price" we pay for a great free resource. :)
