To whet your whistle for this webinar, here are few examples that were featured…

• Radio Garden – get a taste of international culture without leaving your house. Spin a virtual globe
and listen to radio stations from around the world!
• Conserve the Sounds – an online museum for endangered and vanishing sounds. (i.e. a payphone
or a coffee grinder). Hear sounds that are about to disappear from everyday life.
Games –
• Rebuses – over 1,000 rebus puzzles to solve, varying levels and shareable
• Hex Invaders – a play on Space Invaders, but all about hexadecimals
Art –
• Use Cubes – allows you to build 3D pixel art – looks a little like Minecraft
• How Long to Read – a practical site that tells you how long it will take the average reader to read a
specific book – it can also give you your own reading speed on a sample of the book
