GoogleReader is a great tool for aggregating RSS feeds to one location. I actually prefer Apple Mail for handling my RSS feeds, but GoogleReader is particularly good for blogger.com RSS feeds. For that reason, and its seamless integration with iGoogle, I am starting to like GoogleReader a little more. Here are the 5 RSS feeds I have subscribed to:
As many of you know by now, ted.com is an amazing source of talks given by some of the brightest minds in the world. The speakers touch on everything from education to world issues offering ideas that matter. I have been subscribed to this blog for a few years now and each time they send out a new video, I’m blown away.
TeacherTube is obviously a rip-off of YouTube. This site offers some great examples of student work, tutorials, and other ideas that teacher can use in the classroom. Most of the videos posted on TeacherTube are appropriate for a wide range of audience and are generally classroom safe.
Squidoo is a really neat place to create a website. For me, it’s a great place to learn new things. I’ve subscribed to the “How-To” feed which describes how to do all sorts of little things. Many of these “how-tos” can be used in the classroom.
Edutopia is a massive database of educational bogs, videos, enrichment ideas and so forth. There are a number of different topics within education in which to subscribe. I like “Education Innovation”, by Milton Chen.

Tech in the Classroom is a blog that gives short and sweet examples of how to use technology in the classroom. The blog consists of many videos and is also very entertaining.
