The amount of information on the web is mind boggling, and finding time to explore is tough in our busy lives. Let’s spend some time relaxing, laughing, and being amazed by some of the COOL stuff on the web. We’ll explore everything from 3D virtual worlds to interactive fiction – and everything in between! Leave with a list of links you’ll be anxious to share with friends, family, and your students!
