Internet Detective

I was looking for some sites to help with evaluating internet sources for students. I liked this one for high school and college. It is clear, concise, and informative.

Internet Detective: Wise up to the Web

For the younger crowd, I liked this one. It was published last in 2000, which might seem a bit old in the web world, but the format was appropriate and the material appeared quite useful.

If you have any sites you like, please share!

Thanks,

Google Earth Adds Wikipedia Content and Much More

Google Earth is one of my favorite places to "play." Now they have added new layers that integrate Wikipedia articles as well as photos from Panoramio.com. Check out this Monkey Bites post on the Wired Blogs.

Or, go straight to the new Google Earth http://earth.google.com/earth4.html

Thanks!
