I thought that the power point presentations on breeze was pretty cool.  It worked pretty well with only a few minor setbacks.  The entire time I was thinking about how cool it would be to be able to use this to help students with homework or something along those lines.  I thought the information provide in the power points was really cool,  google earth could be a great lead into a new unit, Skype could be used to communicate to people far away like a senator, all of the technologies are really neat.  The only thing I really didn't like was that I could always hear people on breeze, which made it difficult at times to pay attention.  I think I will use Skype in class, because I like the idea of using it to contact a senator, and have him/her talk to the kids about the issues that matter to them.
