Things #6

I keep reading about the "divide" or "gap" in technology. This topic has ranged from economic issues to an issue of intellect (life long learning). My feelings are divided.
I attended the TCEA conference in Austin and came back even more overwhelmed. What I noticed from the vast array of sessions is that elementary classrooms are using technology. One particular session gave a great presentation on using the interactive whiteboards/slate. One topic that was not well represented was secondary English language arts. The main focus of this group of presenters was Web 2.0 and blogging. Where are the interactive whiteboard lessons/activities for secondary ELA?
Now, I can reflect on my experience with Thing #6. The RSS feeds were simple to set up. I found several sites that help with my area of curriculum. But, I need remediation on how to link to another site with the blue link. I have returned to #4 to find some help.
