"As we quickly approach the dawn of a new year, here are my picks for the 101 most useful websites of the year 2010.
The list primarily highlights the lesser-known or undiscovered websites and misses out all-time favorites like Google Docs, Wikipedia or IMDB that most of us are already aware of.Useful Websites Worth a Bookmark!
The sites mentioned below, well most of them, solve at least one problem really well and they all have simple web addresses (URLs) that you can easily learn by heart thus saving you a trip to Google.
In a hurry? Download this list as a PDF eBook and read it anywhere."
Teaching, learning, reading, writing, culture, literature, classroom management, new technologies, health... anything related to education. Think and Dream in English (plus some Spanish and Catalan).
