Fun 'n' Games

Week 5:  Number 12


Because I have used Wordle with my students and for my own enjoyment, I investigated Rollyo.  This is a tool that allows the user to create personalized mini-search engines.  It allows the user to aggregrate all sites about a particular topic, and then to find them instantly.  I, for example, made a reference site of dictionaries, thesauruses, and all sites having to do with word finding.  Now, when I want to access a reference site, I just have to use "Reference" as my key word, and all of the sites that I enjoy using appear on a page of links.  It's a great organizational tool!  Someone's always thinkin' out there!
