Zoom world-shaker: iTeacherBook iPad version submitted This is an awesome teaching tool from the makers of iStudiez Pro (arguably the best student planner app for iOS). I strongly suggest you take a look when it’s published (and learn more about it right now).

COMPARE EDUCATION APPS

gjmueller:

You probably saw the title of this post and thought ‘okay there’s no friggin’ way anyone’s going to assemble a list of the best 50,000 education apps. But thanks to a partnership between Edudemic and FindTheBest, we’ve done just that. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to build a robust directory of, as of this writing, about 56,000 education apps. But it’s not just a list… it’s a finely tuned directory capable of sorting out all the apps in ways not even available in the iTunes or Mac App stores. For example, you can now find out the average price of all education apps to see where your app falls.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? BOOKMARK AND SHARE AND REBLOG AND USE this awesome resource! :)

New York Times Goes Flipboard

(photo courtesy of allthingsd)

“Now the paper says it will emulate cable TV’s “TV Everywhere” strategy, where paying subscribers can read the paper using any device or software they want.” -Peter Kafka, All Things D

This is the first time the NY Times has given anyone full access to their stuff. And this is the first time that Flipboard has been granted access to a complete body of work rather than their typical handfuls of clips from newspapers and magazines.
