I choose iGoogle as my start page because I had already created an account with Google while doing a lot of these 23 things. Also, I really wanted to keep things simple and familiar to start. Since Google opens on most computers I log into, it just seemed to make sense. This will be pretty cool while balancing APSU classes, teaching, and personal life, being able to see all that I need at a glance, plus some extras just for fun.
Again, staying with Google, the calendar tool will be very helpful, personally, when coordinating who is taking which child to what activity, not to mention our own activities as adults.
I am going to try "Remember the Milk" to-do list tool for a while to see how it works. I am going to download the app to see if having it on my ipod will help. If not, then I am afraid it won't help me with things that occur between the times that I use my computer, which isn't a problem right now because of the summer classes I am taking. However, during the school year, there are some weekends I just don't go online, or even power up my PC. So, if this works well on my ipod, it may be useful for me not to forget...assuming I put it into the to-do list in the first place. Hmmmm...back on me, huh?
Lastly, I tried out StickyNotes.net. This will be helpful for me during research for my own college classes, as well as, bookmarking specific locations on sites where I am using instructions from a DIY website.
