The Art of Public Speaking
"The Art of Public Speaking is another college textbook site, this one supplements the McGraw-Hill book by Stephen Lucas. Under the Resources heading, you’ll find links to sites that supplement and relate to the textbook itself. Some of these are useful for those of us without the textbook (such as the history of public speaking, and career explorations) while others are not. The best clicks are the Guides to Public Speaking in the right-hand column, which include How to Give Your First Speech and Presentation Graphics."

Surfing the Net with Kids: Portable Classics
"The perennial question about e-books is whether or not they will replace printed books. I think the whole debate is ridiculous. Printed books are not going anywhere, and neither are electronic ones. They each have distinct advantages. I like electronic text for ease of searching, for emergency homework purposes, for research, for portability and for immediacy: a downloaded book is available within minutes; a printed one requires a trip to the library or store.
