The Skinny on Skimm

NOTICE TO READERS:
Due to all of the issues with Youtube, blocking and general network mayhem in school districts, I will be going old school with regular blog posts rather than videos.  I hope this will allow everyone the ability to stay up to date with new cool techie tidbits.
I apologize for any inconvenience.

Now back to the show....

A while back I posted some information on News in Levels, a great resource for various reading levels.  I discovered that tool while looking for a news option that broke down the most important events going on each day in an easy to read format for busy people, for students, for those that get panicky every time they watch the news, or anyone else that likes to stay informed without spending a lot of time doing it.  This weekend, thanks to Facebook, I learned about Skimm.  

Skimm is the answer I have been looking for!  It emails me every morning with the skinny on all things news related from world news to sports news.  To top it all off, it does it in a fun, simple format and includes additional links if you need to learn more.  I have only read two copies so far but I must say I am impressed. 

If this is something that could interest you, check it out at www.theskimm.com.  It will allow you to view previous days so that you can see if it is right for you before you submit your email.
