    This is excellent Anne. We are developing a series of Information Skills lessons for Yrs 11 & 12. Do you mind if we use some of your slides - with due recognition of course?

    Going to make a series of these with some shorter 'How-tos' - like how to use Netvibes, Delicious etc. Will take time though!
