Lutz Integrate - Livebinders - Collect resources and share them easily

Live Binders is a web tool that allows you to create an online binder with tabs and sub tabs.  You can use this to share and annotate images, websites, google docs and more.  This would be a good site to create an online portfolio for students and professionals.

Lutz Integrate - Kid Zui The Internet for Kids

Kidzui

This is a web browser made just for kids and can set parents minds at ease when their children are on the internet!  The site allows kids to search for kid appropriate videos on yourtube, play kid appropriate games and lets them search and look at websites for kids!  Parents can sign up and track the amount of time the child is on the computer and password protect them from getting off the browser and going somewhere else.  I have tried this out on my daughter and she seemed to really like it, the interface is easy to navigate and there is a lot to choose from.  I am intersted to see how this could be used in a classsroom setting for yound students, if I get the chance to try it I will share later!

Lutz Integrate - App - Splashtop Remote, see your computer screen on your iPad

This iPad app allows you to see and interact with you computer via your ipad.  The app cost five dollars, and seems to be worth the small fee. I tried a bunch of different programs on my computer and they all seemed to work well.  Teachers you can manipulate your computer and presentations without being at the front of the class!  You can try this app free for 5 minutes before you have to buy it.
