# 10 Image Generator

When exploring the very first link in this Task I found this website http://www.bighugelabs.com/ which has many tools, one of them is called Motivator which is Motivational Poster maker. Here is the link to this tool http://www.bighugelabs.com/motivator.php
I made this poster using this tool. I thought this is quite useful tool to make Motivational posters for class rooms, as well.
You can create your own customized motivational posters. Make your own inspirational, funny, parody, sports or other posters. Perfect for the office, schools, teachers, coaches, as announcements, for parties, invitations, and a lot more.

# 9 Virtual World: Second Life

As a Newbie to virtual world, I find the concept and ideas fascinating! I explored some of the links and had exciting experience. I would like to explore the virtual world a lot more and have a better understanding of it. In particular I am interested in education in second life! Love the idea of becoming a college boy in Second Life and have all the experiences that I wish I had in This Life - that will be exciting!
I am yet to explore WOW!

# 8 iGoogle

iGoogle: Previously I had explored iGoogle to a basic level and set it up as a Home page on our home computer. I also had installed some of the gadgets like weather, calendar, clock, etc. Although we have a broadband Internet connection, iGoogle slowed down the start up loading of our computer quite considerably so after some time we uninstalled iGoogle and went back to Classic Google as a Home page.
Google Chrome: At home I have been using Google Chrome for some time. We find it faster than Internet explorer.
Firefox: I just explored Firefox to a basic level and already like its simple home page. From now on I would like to continue using it instead of Internet explorer and get used to it so I can compare it against Internet explorer and Google chrome.

# 7 Google Books

Today is the first time I explored Google Books and found it very useful tool, it is a great help for people involved in education. For class room teachers and teacher librarians it is a wonderful tool at their finger tips. It is good to see some books are out of copy rights and those can be downloaded freely. The links to libraries are great for students too.
