Thing 12

It's amazing to me how far Google has come. I can't tell you how many times a day I "googled" something to find an answer or a website. It really is the most popular search engine that I know of. Now it has so many other cool features to it! 
I experimented with Google Translator and I really liked it. It actually translates as you type in English to whatever language you want. I can see how that would be really useful to a Spanish teacher in high school.
I also made a Picasa Web Album. It is really similar to Flickr. But I like it a little better because you can click and drag pictures straight into the upload box. It super easy and a lot faster. It would be a good feature for the classroom for sharing images and creating fun projects for the students.

  1. I seriously didn't know that Google had so much on there now. I usually only go on there to search for different things. I agree with you on the Google Translator! It was so cool!
