It was then I discovered that I realized that I had nothing to add to the collective brain that is Winter Fun 2.0. I spend my time using other people's ideas. Not creating my own. So what to blog?
Nothing. I did have fun creating my own magazine cover. My family and I are going to New York this week and I loved the trip planning mashup using Flickr. Reading comments from other families is giving me a good idea of where to go and at what pace for my 7 and 10 year old.
So here goes...
My sister and I sent in a video tape for the Amazing Race. I guess we just scared them off!

I don't think the purpose of this 2.0 tutorial is to be ever-newly creating ideas. I think the harder part is in applying these ideas, not just for the sake of using them but when the application truly enhances learning. So hey, copy away! Isn't that part of why we say let's not recreate the wheel?
Hey CoCoaCowboy,
Keep on using others ideas. But, only use those that are of quality and add value to your instruction etc. Many of the tools offer plenty of flash but little substance. If one is to create, it should be done thoughtfully and with purpose. There are plenty of people smarter than you and I. Why not use those ideas.
Secondly, now I know why I didn't make it on the Amazing Race. It was the same reason your sister didn't make it.
