Symbaloo

Look!  Something beside links!  Actually, it's a post about links; how about that?

In an effort to better reach teachers, I'm building out a series of Symbaloo web mixes.  What does this mean exactly?  Well, Symbaloo is a visual, cloud-based bookmarking site.  This means that teachers and students can access these bookmarks anywhere, and rather than looking at a list of websites, they'll see little tiles with symbols and titles.

I want to embed mine below but I'm having trouble and the Symbaloo site doesn't have the best support.  So, off to Vicki Davis to see what she can offer.  If you don't follow her, this woman knows all things tech!
