Highlight important information on a website and save it to share with other group members or for yourself later in your research. Try The Awesome Highlighter. I couldn’t make this work in Safari, but its fine in Firefox. Here’s an example: http://awurl.com/hvliic71358

I watched BBC World News last night and it had a segment explaining the pitfalls of signing up for all those fun games and widgets on Facebook. They exposed a security flaw that could allow someone to gather information about you and your friends.

When you are first assigned a research topic or you are trying to pick your own, browse Nettrekker. It is a subject directory, so you won’t need to wade through the garbage to retrieve the gems. It is a subscription subject directory that helps you find valuable ‘free web’ resources.
To access Nettrekker, go to http://school.nettrekker.com/ If you are at home, you’ll need the username and password. Stop by the library for a password flyer.
If nothing else, it will save you time.
