Hello everybody,

Thank you Wedny Boswell and thank you dear instructors, Jodi and Sheire for thses wonderful bookmarks you present to us in this course. I am delighted to read about all the the tools Wendy pointed out. I think this will enhance my abilities in managing different topics in the web. This will be reflected to my students and my colleagues at school. I am astonished again by the amount of information I get during the course. I would like to recommend this course to all teachers, educators and lecturers so that they can perform well i their work. These tools help a lot in finding the information we need fast, learning fast, helping others fast. In that way we save time , effort, money and end up with better results. I would like to present these tools as follows:
