We've had very good experiences with Flips this year, but I also ran =
into the problem when sharing the avi files. Our solution has been to =
convert the files into wmv so they play in Windows Media Player and =
import into Movie Maker. We use the free-download version of Any Video =
Converter for this purpose and for other downloads. Not a perfect fix =
but quick and easy for anything I've wanted to do so far...=20

Marty,
I've also had positive experiences with the Flip, and think it's a great =
choice. I did find that in order to import to Movie-Maker, I had to =
install the Flip software on the computer I was using MovieMaker on, in =
order for the correct codec to be there. In other words, I was not able =
to film with the Flip and then use the Flip AVI files on a different =
computer that did not have the Flip software installed. I wish I =
understood more about codecs. It would be simpler if we could just push =
that codec out to all computers, rather than installing the Flip =
software. My Flip is about 2 years old, so perhaps this problem no =
longer exists with the newer models.
Ali,
I'd agree with others that Diigo is a cut above Delicious. I and some =
others outlined those benefits on this wiki article: =
http://schoolcomputing.wikia.com/wiki/Why_We_Like_Diigo. I have the =
diigo toolbar installed on all the computers I use. In the Chrome web =
browser, the "toolbar" is a bookmarklet. The subscribable groups on =
Diigo are a great feature.
All,
A recent addition the the ISEnet navigation has been to create a list of =
the k-8 grade level groups and k-12 subject areas. I'd love to see =
teachers across our schools participate in these grade-level and =
subject-specific groups to dip their toes into the power of Personal =
Learning Networks:
grade level groups: http://bit.ly/1bHPGT subject area groups: =

best regards,
Demetri
