The Future of the Wiki; middle school math wiki
[Cool Cat Teacher Blog] Any wiki tool that develops some of these features will surely rise to the top of the list. The Jot wiki is developing lots of add'l functionality, but not these items and they seem to be moving away from the free model to the pay model, at least if you want to get their value-added tools or have more than just a few authors.

Got on Nightline
[ Twofish’s Blog] out of a twenty minute rant. It’s a basic limitation of the television medium that they have to do that, but the limitsin broadcasting means that you have to focus in the strange, simple, and emotional, rather than complex, ordinary, and rational.

[LinkMachineGo | 'are you linking what we're linking?' | a weblog] ‘The name originated with the armed Imperial Stormtroopers in the original Star Wars trilogy, who, despite their considerable advantages of close range, overwhelming numbers, professional military training, full armor, military-grade firepower, and noticeable combat effectiveness against non-speaking characters, were incapable of seriously harming the protagonists.’

Learn something new every day with Wikipedia's Randompage
[Lifehacker, the Productivity and Software Guide] My homepage is set at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Randompage, which means every time I open my browser I have a random "Hey, I didn't know that!" moment even if I only intended to check my email or something. It's pretty fun.
