Newseum for current events

This is kind of a neat site – and a fun way to do a little comparison of “current events” from around the state, nation, and world.

Just put your mouse on a city and the newspaper headlines pop up... Double click and the page gets larger....

Also, if you look at the European papers, the far left side of Germany will pop up as The Stars & Stripes (European edition, of course). AND, this site changes everyday with the publication of new editions of the paper. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Tip: Easy Way to Create Web Page

Want to have a classroom website but don't want to learn the html programming in order to publish a web page? Perhaps you don't have the money or time for a commercial program... OR...using a classroom website can be limiting...there is a solution.

I have been teaching a free program called Mozilla to my teachers that want to build classroom webpages. If you know how to word process, you can build a page. What's cool...if you are a geek that likes to work in the code, you can do that too. Another nice component is Mozilla is cross-platform so you can use it on a Mac or a PC.

Visit the Mozilla website to download the program. While you are on this site, take a look at all the other free software available to you.

There are a lot of different programs available for building websites, but Mozilla seems to be one of those that people feel comfortable with.
