Google
Lots of stuff to look through for Thing # 7. Where was Google Scholar and Advanced Search when I was in college? What a cool way to find the latest and greatest on whatever you happen to be studying. I think Google Earth would be a great thing to have in the classrooms. Its great for the students to be able to see places around the world that way instead of just in photographs. Google Alerts are also a good way to keep up with current events for classroom discussions.
I am still playing with iGoogle. There is so much stuff you can add to customize to have all the information you want and need right on your home page.
I'm still playing with the calendar as well. It should be done soon.

Google Earth sort of eliminates the need for those old pull-down maps in classrooms, too! There are so many things, like you said. The possibilities are just endless!
