The start page I chose was Symabloo. I liked it because it was easy to use and I love the big buttons to push where you would like to go. Most of the tiles it came with were ones I use regularly anyways, so there was not a whole lot of editing. I could not figure out how to take the ones I did not like off however and I consider them a waste of space. However, it was easy to add new ones and they give you plenty of space to move them around and fill the spaces up. I will probably not make it my permanent home page. I have Google as my home page now and everything else is bookmarked. It just takes too long load an extensive home page, and I like it being simple.
An online calendar could be helpful to me because I can share it with people, including my students. I could put up when test dates are going to be and then easily change it around and tell my students about it. My biggest problem with an online calendar is that I do not have a smart phone. I think that to get the best use out of one of them you need an android, iPhone, or tablet. I have none of these.
I chose Remember the Milk off of the list above. Again, I think that this is a feature that would best be used with a smart phone. I do think that it could be useful and I would recommend it to others. I think that you could use almost any of the links on the list for both school and home. As society and education gets more technologically advanced, more website like this will be needed. Especially Zamzar. The types of software that students use is always changing and it will be important for teachers to be able to convert their files.
