Thing #12

Hola a todos!
Bonjour à tous!
Hallo an alle!
Ciao a tutti!

These are four different ways to say "Hello everyone!". In Google Translate you can type in any phrase that you need to be translated and it will do it for you in a matter of seconds!  These four phrases are in Spanish, French, German, and Italian.  I did not know this even existed.  I feel like this would be great in a classroom if maybe you were doing a lesson over any of these languages.  It's a quick and easy way to translate.  This is just one of the things I explored on Google.  The other one I looked at was Google Alert.  I decided to set up an account to send me alerts on educational news as it happens.  I feel this will keep me updated in today's news about teachers or students.  In a classroom this would be great.  You could keep all your students parents up to date about whats going on in the education world, if they don't already know.
Google is not just a researching tool, it also has very cool links like the alert and translate one.  There is many more to explore :)
