Applications and tools

Wow! Lots to explore here. Just got a hint of what can be done. All online. Got to think about this one.

Search Engines

This was interesting. I did the same search about the U.S. Senate and the FISA bill, just in the week that votes were being taken. I was really pleased with the results from the search in Dogpile which was so much more substantive, current and relevant than the other search engines. I will use it in the future for reference requests.

Online image generators

This was interesting, but not something I am likely to be using. The scrapbook generator seemed like fun.

Maps and Geotagging

Now this is something really fun. I saw my own house, with the iffy landscaping. Easier to move around than I thought it would be. What a great tool.
