But he denies them it, instead gorging himself. In effect, being greedy. In there lies your answer, why would you take too much? And I think that halloween incedent was a warning, and he ignored it.

Jane, thanks. Flock, huh? But Jeff says Netvibes. And I still can’t leave Bloglines.

I wonder why we choose what we choose? Be interesting to hear you explain your preferences.

Dana, I hear you about un-savvy teens.

But I’ve put Flixn (and even a screaming Voki animated infant) on my class AP Lit blog, and the student are still have clueless.

Tx for the feedback~

Wow! Flixn is so cool. I'm glad I have a webcam. I know one use I will put it to is a tutorial on navigating my classroom blog. My students seem to have more trouble with that because they aren't as net savvy as everyone would like to think teens are. Anyway, thanks for sharing.
