Blip.fm

Now, for teachers, you might not see the immediate value in this, but think outside the box. Blip.fm is an online source where you can become your own DJ, and if you are linked into Twitter, your Blips are immediately posted for your followers. The students love this site for some obvious reasons, but if you're a teacher, how can this benefit you? Well, what if you have a blog/wiki or some other forum, and you want to share a song(s) that is relative to a lesson you've created. You can embed the Blip into the forum, and the students can access the song anywhere they can access the Internet.

One of my students asked if we can try to set up an online radio station for WHS... hmmm, if we're worried about what is school appropriate, this seems like a great online forum that our students can access where we ALL have access to what content is good. We're working on it. Keep you posted.
