Teachers. Our service is actually quite a bit different than what Google is offering. Last summer Yahoo! partnered with educators and created an <strong>entirely new</strong> (free) service created by teachers, for teachers. Yahoo! has created a search widget called the Gobbler that allows you to collect and organize materials (links, images, text, url's) from any website directly into your own ePortfolio. Once the objects you've collected are in your portfolio, you can remix and share your materials with other educators. We've also built in several avenues for you to connect with your colleagues. We will be launching Yahoo! Teachers this summer. So be sure to sign up for an invite! In addition, we will be at NECC in Atlanta, so be sure to stop by our booth to get some cool Yahoo! Teachers stuff and say hello! Thanks again! Derek Community Manager, Yahoo! Teachers Thanks so much for the post about Yahoo! Teachers.
