Overview

 * Network and collaborate with other classrooms and educators to share interests and knowledge
 * Tag and share resources for projects
 * Provide students with live links instead of copying and pasting or typing long URLs
 * Ability to add RSS feed to your network to see what new sites and tags other people are adding
 * Use the highlighting and annotating features to give feedback for online students projects (web pages, blogs, wikis, slideshows)
 * Since you can write directly on the website and save it, the need to print out sources greatly diminishes

Ideas for Use in the Classroom

 * Using the stick-note feature, a teacher can feature a website and ask students to comment on a big picture question. Each student gets to contribute their own thoughts and ideas and read those of the classmates.
 * Online research collaboration
