Lookybook
Even though recommendations for great children's books abound, you usually want to see them first before you buy. You don't always have time to stop into a bookstore, and Amazon and Google Books only provide limited pages or views. Well, now you can view entire picture books--from start to finish--online at Lookybook.com. The site also allows users to rate books, comment on them, see related recommendations, share favorites, and purchase through other online retailers.

An easy way for students to organize homework
Soshiku is a free, online program that lets students keep track of assignments and due dates. Deadlines can be entered in online or via text message, and students can save notes, invite partners for projects, and share files. The program will even notify students of due dates via email or SMS. And one of the best things about Soshiku? It was created by a student!
