GOOGLE-ING....

Google--the company so ubiquitous that has its own verb. When you want to know something, students now turn to Google and "Google it." back in the day, you had to schlep to a library and look into card catalogues, indexes and periodical guides. Now...you Google.

But to the Googler  beware! Like the human brain, the average student utilizes a small portion of its power. (Not to mention the fact that all sites are not mandatorily fact-checked or extensively researched for purely FACTUAL content).

So check out this site if you are ready for some Advanced Googl-ing! While you are at it, you'll also be exposed to all of Google's free tools for reading, writing, and editing documents. They offer one of the best online calendar systems, and one of the best free e-mail clients (with scads of server space for a free e-mail client). They have free e-books that can be read on multiple readers, ability to setup discussion groups, blogs, photo albums, etc.
