The winners of the tablet grants presented at NECC last June. Very impressive. I applied for the grant last year and did not get it from HP, however I submitted a similar grant to Intel and got 20 tablets and six wireless projectors! This grant has changed the way technology is being used in my high school. We love the tablets!! Mary Hi -

Of course, lots of services let you port your del.icio.us bookmarks over to them, which helps. But, if you are looking for the annotation features combined with the bookmarking, check out Diigo (<a href="http://www.diigo.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.diigo.com/</a>). They let you bookmark sites, then annotate as many sections of the web page that you want to. Really cool, but the simplicity of del.icio.us is hard to beat. I just finished writing a post at 21apples about how I use del.icio.us and ma.gnolia. Will, I dread the idea of leaving del.icio.us, I have over 900 bookmarks there.

After meeting you this summer at Kent, I am working to use technology in my classroom and encourage other colleagues in my building to use technology. As our district grows, the funds for technology shrinks. Can you point me in the direction of where to locate technology grants? I would love to use tablet pcs, but know that it's not in the budget at this time. Hi Will.
