I Tunes

Apple is a true technology pioneer.
I think that Apple has reinvented themselves in the past few years. I remember when I was in grade school Apple was the newest and best. We had all kinds of Mac computers in our computer labs. Then I believe the trend became if you were in computer graphics or any art field of that sort Apple was the computer for you and the rest of the population leaned towards the PC.
Now, Apple is back. The IPhone, IPod, IPod touch, Nano, ITunes, and now the IPad. I have an IPod and an IPod touch. (I just had to have the movies for the airplane flight to Hawaii.)
I think the coolest features that I use from the Itunes store are the downloads of movies, music, and audio books. You are able to preview before you purchase and then buy. It is a secure site that allows you to search and find popular artists and the unpopular 'new' artists.

Google Docs

I have now created and explored the user friendly Google Docs. I created a document for oganizing all the upcoming meetings and needed tasks for each child with a 504 or IEP on my case load. This is nice because I can access it from home and I was able to invite others who are involved in the process, such a special services or case managers. Another option that is nice is the calendar. With this everyone can see the dates on the calendar and be notified of time. Pretty cool!
