Hey all,

This morning we launched YouTube.com/Teachers as a resource for educators

everywhere to learn how to use YouTube as an educational tool. There are

lesson plan suggestions, highlights of great educational content on

YouTube, and training on how teachers can film their own educational videos.

This site was designed/written by teachers for teachers and we hope

t's the first step in really kick-starting a community of YouTube-using

educators (sign up for the new YouTube Teachers email list on the right hand side here)

Read the launch blog post here, co-authored by
James Sanders and the launch tweet is here

Google’s Answer to the Facebook “Like” Button: The “+1”

2011-03-30T17:01:00.000-07:00

Google is making a big new push into social with a feature called “+1” that is similar in purpose to the Facebook “Like” button, but integrated directly into the world’s biggest search engine.

Starting Wednesday, users who opt into the +1 button experiment(and soon everyone else) in Google Labs will start seeing a +1 icon next to each link in Google search results.

Google defines this action as a “public stamp of approval,” and it is exactly that. When you +1 something, your name becomes associated with that link “in search, on ads, and across the web,” according to the company. It also shows up in a feed on your Google Profile, which is required to use the product.

The move builds on a number of social features that Google introduced in search earlier this year, such as the ability to see which friends have tweeted a given link in search results. Today’s move, however, is clearly something much bigger.

Beyond showing up in search results, Google plans to offer to publishers a +1 button that lets readers +1 something without leaving the publisher’s site. Facebook has a big head start here with its Like button — some 2 million sites and counting have it installed — but Google’s button will instantly have a lot of appeal, given the company says +1 data will directly influence its market share dominating search rankings. Similarly, we have to imagine that +1 is more bad news for content farms, whose content is less likely to be shared.

In another twist, users will also be able to +1 ad, which essentially adds a “recommended by friends” component to AdWords and AdSense. as the company explains on the AdWords blog.

The video below explains +1 in more detail; we’ll have further analysis on Mashable later today.

10 Ways to Measure Your Time Spent Online
Time being spent online can easily eat away at a 24 hour day but we often don’t realize just how much time we are spending browsing the web. Here are 10 different applications that can help you measure that time accurately and, in some cases, help you to put a limit on it.

Timetracker – This tool is a Mozilla Firefox add-on, which of course means it is very simple to install on your Firefox browser and simple to use as well. It also provides a variety of tracking options. You may set it to track for one day at a time or you may have the tracking be ongoing from the time of install. There are also settings that allow you to track only your time on specific websites of your choosing. So, if all you wanted to track was your time on social websites, you could add those sites to your list of site browsing to track. A very versatile and easy to use solution.

8aweek - This piece of software adds a few more options than Timetracker and is actually designed to help you save time and not just track your time. 8aweek has setting options that you can utilize to limit the amount of time you spend on certain sites like facebook, or others of your choosing, each day. You have the option of having the software give you warnings that you’ve used up your allotted time on a site or to block sites altogether. The name itself comes from its claim that it can save you eight hours a week. The software has a reporting feature as well. The bad news is that you have to get it from mozilla as this site appears to now be abandoned.

MeeTimer – This one is a very basic tracking tool. It will track the time you spend on each website during a given day and give you a clear picture at the end of the day of how your time online was spent. The report even includes some basic statistic regarding the percentage of your work week that was spent on the various sites you have frequented during the day.
RescueTime – Unlike the above programs, this is a PC based program that will track time spent in your desktop software programs, as well as online. The key to this program is in the setup. You assign what you want it to track and report on for you. It can provide you with a very detailed look at how you are spending your computer time, both online and off.

Toggl – This is a little app that is going places. Lots of places! Not only does toggl have web-based and desktop versions, it also has Android and iphone applications. Track your time for your own personal information or track it for billing purposes. Although there is a simple free version, the month-by-month plans are inexpensive and being used by many.

Slife – This application works with both Macs and PC’s to track and analyze the time you spend on your computer. It does have the added advantage of reporting on the use of both desktop applications, like email, as well as your online activity. It provides you with great visual reports of how you have spent your time.

TimeSprite – This inexpensive piece of software is a great choice for freelancers. This software provides time tracking for billing purposes as well as for your own accountability. It will tell you how much time you spend on your email, how much time you worked on an Excel spreadsheet or how much time spent catching up on facebook. It provides a 15 day free trial when you download the software, which is a great way to check out its features before you decide to buy.

Outlook (Microsoft) – Many people don’t realize that Outlook has a time tracking feature built into its Journal. This is designed more for tracking your time on a phone call or working on a MS Office file, but it
could be utilized for tracking time on the web as well.

Fanurio – This is another time tracking software that is often used by freelancers because of its simplicity and its billing capabilities. Fanurio does not track the use of computer programs or web browsing specifically or automatically. It simply provides you a computerized timing device that is also tied to your billing software. To use it for tracking your time on line, it would be a matter of turning the timer on when you begin and off when you finish. It is definitely not geared specifically for this type of tracking but certainly could accomplish the task.

Online Stopwatch – This is a very simple gadget that does work very similar to a stopwatch. You can turn it on to track your time on a site or any other activity you want to measure your time on. Just click stop when your done to see how much time has expired. You can also use it as an alarm to tell you when you’ve reached a pre-set limit.

There are lots of options to choose from, many of them free, if you really want to know the answer to how much time you REALLY spend online.
