I visited BeFunky.com and Quizlet. I thought that they were both very interesting. I really liked befunky. I had fun taking a picture of my son and playing with it. I do not really see how I could use it in my teaching outside of making the material more "snappy". However, I will use it personally to make cards and funky paper for gifts, etc.
Quizlet was actually a bit of a disappointment. I thought that it would be great to use for helping my students prepare for their exams. I suppose that it could still be used for such, but it was not that interesting. It seems like a lot of work just to make glorified flashcards. If flashcards are all that we are making, then my students can do that on thier own. I did consider using it for actually assigning quizzes to students. It would be a whole lot easier to simply have my students take a quiz online and have the results sent to me. The only problem with that is there are not enough computers available at any given time to make this a viable option.
