Online Productivity! I chose the Google startup page because I normally start searching with Google and I'm comfortable with the site. I have made it my homepage. Why not? I created a Google online calendar, and found it to be excessively complicated compared to the paper and pencil , but I did decide to have the students in my Mu Alpha Theta club use this feature. It has the advantages of being "Technologyish", which will appeal to the students, plus it can be accessed by all club members. I really plan to pass on much more of the organizational responsibilities to the students next year. They will get more out of the club that way and I'm way too busy! I did put a ToDo list right on my custom homepage. That has already come in handy. I really recommend this homepage idea with the to do list and local weather and personal interests and all. I plan on figuring out how to get my kids sports schedules linked directly on there. I see no reason why anyone could not get some benefit from this.Wednesday, April 8, 2009

I put my 3 boys' baseball schedules on the Google calendar and it is great! I have set the calendar up to be shared with grandparents and others who need the info so they all have the details. They are also automatically informed if there is a schedule change without me having to individually notify them. One of the best features is the mobile phone reminders for myself. I get a text reminder for all events! I love it...good luck!
