"My dad changes an ironed shirt every day. He always has a huge stack of shirt cardboards & the kids love them. Using them for reporting is ingenious: remember the exam scene in MIB? cardboard allows you to take quick notes on the move. Paper is a wonderful medium. You can read it in near-dark.

Welcome to the Social Media Classroom and Collaboratory. It’s all free, as in both “freedom of speech” and “almost totally free beer.” We invite you to build on what we’ve started to create more free value. The Social Media Classroom (we’ll call it SMC) includes a free and open-source (Drupal-based) web service that provides teachers and learners with an integrated set of social media that each course can use for its own purposes—integrated forum, blog, comment, wiki, chat, social bookmarking, RSS, microblogging, widgets , and video commenting are the first set of tools. The Classroom also includes curricular material: syllabi, lesson plans, resource repositories, screencasts and videos. The Collaboratory (or Colab), is what we call just the web service part of it. Educators are encouraged to use the Colab and SMB materials freely, and we host your Colab communities if you don’t want to install your own. (See this for an explanation of who “we” are).

doesn't Zotero store refs locally? I prefer bibsonomy.org, which allows me to share & access my refs from any machine. Conotea & citeulike are similar, but bibsonomy has some minor advantages for me.
