Geek Joy!

Google may very well be the greatest thing ever.

Observe:
I'm going to post all my assignments on Google Calendar.
I'm going to share my class calendars will all my kids.
I'm going to have the kids set up RSS feeds or e-mail alerts for every time I add or change homework--the e-mails will go to their APIS Gmail accounts.
I'm going to put all make-up work on Google Docs, online.
Every last one of these things will show up on the kids' customized APIS Google start pages.
Which will be the first thing they see when they go online.

No more "the dog ate my homework," baby! And a whole heck of a lot of saved trees.
