Thing #17

I looked around on the 23 things and I found some interesting sites and I also read some of the comments.  I felt like I would understand it better if I set it up for myself.  So I set it up and imported bookmarks that were previously on my computer.  Once I did that I started searching delicious for history bookmarks and I found an excellent historical picture site.  This site has been saved over 11,000 times.  I searched the comments and I found that there were a lot of history teachers that were sharing this site.  Some of the tags that were used were history, images, and teaching.   I included a picture of the Apollo 11 moonwalk from the Life site. http://images.google.com/hosted/life    I think that this would be a good thing for teachers because they could bookmark popular sites so they could always reference them.  Another way this could be useful for teachers is the social networking aspect.  A teacher could check the bookmarks of other teachers/researchers and use those sites in their classrooms.
