Yesterday, I published a post about YoLink. Today, I had the opportunity to meet with Brian Cheek from YoLink. Brian told me that they have just launched a new search widgets that you can in place in your blog or website. The widgets search the web as well as the content within your blog or website. Currently, the only ready-made widget is for Blogger. Putting YoLink on other platforms requires a small bit of coding.Here's another video highlighting the features of YoLink.
Applications for Education
Putting a YoLink widget on your classroom blog could be a handy tool for searching the content that you or your students have created. YoLink also has some free PDFs about using YoLink in the classroom. The PDFs include ideas for activities that have been done by real classroom teachers using YoLink.
