Google Apps for Education
As a person in the midst of “orienting” hundreds of students to hard to use local system, I would suspect lots of benefits to Google Apps. But is it just me or is Google just too everywhere???
WorldCat [OCLC] versus Google
Today (first day back after three weeks away from work / computers / cities) slogging through my email I see an announcement from OCLC “Announcing the release of the new WorldCat.org Web site.”
My vacation reading included a book by Ann Marie Macdonald, so to try out the search I look for that book (to see what else she’s written), but I can’t remember the title, but I know that it has crows in it.
Search for ann marie macdonald crows – nothing!
Use Google, find it right away.
The title is The Way the Crow Flies.
Crow – not Crows!
WorldCat needs smarter users
or automatic word stemming, or a did you mean “crow”? But, on the whole this looks really useful!
