Doing More with Less Thing #5

The RSS Aggregator is an incredibly powerful, free tool. As I scrolled through multiple articles, and listened to some wonderful podcasts, I was thinking about the amazing possibilities. All of this knowledge at our fingertips. We as a society are able to do so much more, using less time, because of technology.

So many of the articles from the NYT RSS feed related to developments in the economy. They all reinforced the idea of people learning to do more with less, whether it relates to managing their work with less time at the workplace, budgeting differently, growing their own food, and otherwise creatively trying to meet the financial challenges of the current recession. The internet, and all of the Web 2.0 tools, are amazing, free tools to help us as we acquire new information, share ideas with parents and colleagues, and organize our lives and careers, and enrich our students lives and learning experiences using online tools, applications, and activities.
