• the Awesome Highlighter >> Highlight text on web pages

• Find Creative Commons Images in Google Image Search

  I demand that kids use cc lic images if they don’t take the pictures themselves (ie: a tiger would be tough to photograph in Maine . . .not even a real zoo to visit). While Flickr cc is good, and they have the attribution and citation down to a science, this will no doubt open up their options and give them much better search capabilities to find exactly what they are looking for to complete their multimedia projects. (Thanks for tweeting this Tim Hart!)
