Tutorial Project: The Winners

Nope, I didn’t win. But it was a fun project, and it got me to crank out a tutorial I’ve been meaning to write for some time.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and read my tutorial on importing audiobooks, and congrats to the winners!

Link Posting: More Commentary

If you haven’t noticed already, I’ve been adding some comments/descriptions/notes on my links for my daily link post. I hope this makes the lists a little easier to see what’s relevant to your interests, or just know a little more about the link before you go and visit.

Any thoughts? Do you like the new format, or is it too much noise/clutter on the page? Let me know!

Blog Review: Student Hacks

Student Hacks - http://studenthacks.org

Student Hacks provides excellent practical advice for success in school, mainly geared towards college students, but of use to students of nearly all ages. With the goal of simplifying everything about education and teaching students to “study smarter,” the blog covers topics including writing essays, improving study habits, finding reliable online resources, and includes a weekly link roundup of useful student tips from around the web. Best of all, the author writes with a friendly, inviting tone, so readers will feel more like they’re getting advice from a friend instead of a dry authority figure.

Note: I am a category editor for the EatonWeb Blog Directory, in the Education Category. As I review a blog that may be interesting to the readers of Ed Tech Hacks, I’ll post my review here.
